When Firefox opens, delete the Welcome tab, then go to: Tools > General and set the Home Page.

OMG, by refreshing this page, text in post was erased, not good,

Again, When Starting Firefox 8, the Welcome tab keeps returning or coming back, even after changing URL homepage to other URL, Why does it keep re-appearing, and how does one stop it from popping up and primary first tab, along with new URL tab, Do users have to revert to Firefox 7 in order to stop nuisance, as FF 7 did not keep coming back, but recall Firefox 6 did same thing,

Please start a new thread for your problem or question and provide troubleshooting information like your operating system and installed extensions and installed plugins.


Did you check for problems with the prefs.js file (and possible user.js file) and delete that file?
