MSN keeps opening a new tab on my FireFox broswer. It disrupts my work over and over and over.... I am going to have to stop using FireFox (which is my preferred broswer for the last 15 years) and start using Chrome if you can't tell me how to disable the MSN tab from automatically opening.

Is it the main page, or something else? No page/website should open unless it is called.

You may have ad/mal-ware. Further information can be found in this article; https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-caused-malware?cache=no

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