When I click the home button, it takes me to my home page AND opens a blank tab. How can I get it to stop opening the new tab!

I have igoogle as my hompage. When I click the home button, it will open my igoogle page but also open up a blank tab as well. Firefox didn't always do this, it just started. Maybe when I upgraded to the 5.0. I've tried looking in the options and I can't find something there and there doesn't seem to be a solution on the web. How do I get it to stop doing that?

Check your homepage URL setting and make sure there isn't a pipe symbol (vertical bar) at the end of the URL. The "pipe" separates tabs when the user wants multiple homepages that open in separate tabs.
