Firefox opens new homepage window by itself
For some reason, Firefox keeps opening new windows by itself. Like, new homepage windows. I'm not sure why it's doing this it hasnt been doing this . .
Ill just be on a tab minding my own business, then the the next thing I know, a new homepage window will open up by itself. And whats really annoying is when I close the window that popped up, another one will reopen like not even a second later and sometimes itll happen 2 to 3 times in a row.
Can someone help?

firox open your homepage or this new windows are ads?
Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.
You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:
- Microsoft Safety Scanner
- MalwareBytes' Anti-Malware
- TDSSKiller - AntiRootkit Utility
- Hitman Pro
- ESET Online Scanner
Microsoft Security Essentials is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP if you don't already have one.
Further information can be found in the Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware article.

Hello,
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.
To Reset Firefox do the following:
- Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
- Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
- Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
- Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the Refresh Firefox - reset add-ons and settings article.
