Do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before (re)installing a fresh copy of the current Firefox release.

Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.

if possible uninstall your current Firefox version to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.

  • Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because all profile folders will be removed and you lose personal data like bookmarks and passwords from profiles of other Firefox versions.

Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.

  • (32 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
  • (64 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\"

Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.

If you keep having problems then also create a new profile.

Does anything come up when you search the about:config page for the website that comes up?

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

  • Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.

If you do not keep changes after a restart or otherwise have problems with preferences, see:

That honestly didnt do anything

Hi yahmes227, what extensions do you have? Maybe this is a side effect of a different one. You can extract the list from the Troubleshooting Information page. Either:

  • Help > Troubleshooting Information
  • type or paste about:support in the address bar and press Enter

In the upper left corner, click the "Copy text to clipboard" button. When pasting into a reply, you can scroll down to the "Important Modified Preferences" section and delete from there to the end if none of the preferences seem relevant.

what do you mean by "into a reply?" Like posting it into this?

Did I do that right?

Hi yahmes227,

When you open a new tab, does it look like this?

If so, click the Settings link pointed by the arrow, change the Show AVG Secure Search Box as you see fit and click Save to confirm the configuration.

Close Firefox down, then open it up and see if it still appears.

Let us know if it works or not.

P.S. The below are alternatives you can try AFTER trying the steps above.


In regards to the question asked by jscher2000 and you provided the answer, you only have Skype click to call installed, so that shouldn't be affecting anything.


Firefox has an add-on that can reset your homepage, new tab. Install the Search Reset Tool. This will remove the rest of the traces of this program from your Firefox.


Also, you may want to consider creating a new profile.
