Dear Sir,

I set my homepage, it doesn't save. Every time i open mozilla browser, a page gulfsites.com appears as homepage on screen & in settings. I tried setting homepage by dragging page to home icon on toolbar, then getting save, & by directly editing in general settings, in general settings, there doesn't display option to save.

How to solve this issue? this problem is occuring after updating my browser.

You may have ad / mal-ware. Further information can be found in the Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware article.

Run most or all of the listed malware scanners. Each works differently. If one program misses something, another may pick it up.

Note: Some software, like Advanced SystemCare with Surfing Protection, can protect files in the Firefox profile folder against changes. If you have such software then check the settings or uninstall this software.
