Using Firefox 3.6.3 on Mac OS X 10.6.3 When clicking on 'Home' button in the browser, the home page loads in the current tab, but Firefox also opens a new tab and opens the home page there too. Not disastrous, but quite irritating.

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

It could just be that the home page setting was accidentally changed to this. Firefox can be set to have multiple tabs open as the home page. Try resetting your home page - How to set the home page.

Yep, must have had 2 tabs open when I set the 'use current' home page option. That was easy, thanks.
