My version is up to date, and windows is also up to date. All of a sudden yesterday when I uninstalled some spyware that jumped in with my GIMP download, FF got stubborn. Now every new tab opened is a blank tab instead of the tiles that I had set. I open "about:config" and set "browser.newtab.url" to "about:new tab" This solution works as long as I am still in the current window. Once I close FF and open a new window, it reverts to the blank tab. My add-ons were also all disabled, though I managed to uninstall and reinstall each of them except my avast webrep one. They continue to work even in new FF windows. I even tried uninstalling and reinstalling FF, no results. How can I fix this?
