I want to get rid of the newtab as my start page (homepage selected in options, but does not pan out) and it comes up with every link. I tried about :config/ about:newtab to about:blank. now it is WORSE because it is now the homepage too.

Go to about:config, and search for 'newtab'. On 'browser.newtab.url', set the value to about:newtab. This is the default value.

If this doesn't work, try resetting Firefox. All of your data will be saved, and Firefox will be reset to the defaults. Refresh Firefox - reset add-ons and settings
