It's possible that you are having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?

Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not caused by one (or more than one) of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in safe mode (don't forget to select Disable all add-ons when you start safe mode). If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See this article for information about troubleshooting extensions and themes and this one for plugins.

If you need support for one of your add-ons, you'll have to contact its author.

If the problem does not disappear when all add-ons are disabled, please tell me, so we can work from there. Please have no fear of following my instructions to the line, as all can be easily undone.

As for your second question, I do not understand what you mean. Can you please reformulate the question?

2. I'm sorry, let me rephrase my question. I would like to know whether is there any way to change the default webpage for my new tab? Instead of just having a blank page..

I will be working on your solutions, will give you a result asap. Thanks by the way.

You can open a new tab with your home page by middle-clicking the home button. In default Firefox, there is no other way to achieve this, but you may be interested in using an extension like New Tab Homepage to make this easier and more intuitive.

Is that what you need?
