Every time I open a new tab it shows ASK and not google?
My home page is set to google but every time I open a new tab it comes up as ASK.com, how do I get rid of it and keep google.

Hello,
Go to about:config page, search for this option "browser.newtab.url" change this option to "about:home" or other website do you want

You can use the SearchReset extension to reset some preferences to the default values.
Note that the SearchReset extension only runs once and then uninstalls automatically, so it won't show on the "Firefox > Add-ons" page (about:addons).
If you do not keep changes after a restart or otherwise have problems with preferences, see:
Hi tryed that still on ASK
Verify if you dont have a addon of ask:
OK have got rid of ask, it was in add ons????
New tabs now go to fire fox start page, how do I set that as google home?
Sorted, Thanks everyone.
Go to Google and go to "Tools">> "Options" >> "General" Click on "Usar the current page"(somethings like)

Hi Madrat,
Follow the instruction of toddy_victor
Go to "about:config" page on the browser.
search for "browser.newtab.url" and change the value to "www.google.com".
This is the problem with addon.

Hi Sandy.1
Is this about starting Firefox or about opening a new tab (click the plus sign) or clicking the toolbar Home button?
