OK, try this.
- In the location bar, type about:config and hit Enter.
- In the filter at the top, type: keyword.URL
- Double click it and remove whatever's in there. You'll see it revert to "Default" and "String".
- Go to File | Exit
- Restart Firefox, go to the site you want to set as your homepage.
- Go to Tools | Options | General.
- Make sure it says "Show My Homepage" in the first dropdown menu.
- Click the button called "Use Current Pages" to set the homepage to the one you have on the screen.
- Close Firefox again and then restart it.

not good. You shouldn't have told me to download that program if that was a possibility... d
I just updated my post (on the previous page), so go back one please.
I wonder if I hit the wrong download button on that page. Should I try again and make sure I have mbam-setup?
j.
Yes, that would be a good idea.
I downloaded it and updated and ran it. This is what it said:
The scan is completed successfully. No malicious items were detected. A log file has been saved to the logs folder.
So, it must not be a hijacked browser?
did you give up on me?
No, I didn't give up on you. But I was tired and went to bed early.
Can you paste the whole URL in the popup into your next message please. Does it contain an IP address?

When I open firefox I get a blank window instead of my homepage. Then there is a popup window that says
Confirm
? You are about to log in to the site "johndavisgallery.com" with the username "www.%2Eart", but the website does not require authentication. This may be an attempt to trick you.
Is "johndavisgallery.com" the site you want to visit?
Below this message are two buttons: Yes No or you can click the X in the upper right hand corner to close it.
There is no URL or UP address in the popup and the URL bar at the top simply says Go to a Web Site.
Until I close this window there is nothing else the computer will allow me to do. I think it is a windows or firefox warning..... But until a month ago, I had never had this happen.
