Yesterday my homepage changed - there's no normal firefox symbol with the little fox hugging th earth. Just a four color wheel, next to it "search results" then the blank field for entering a search. Below that is an ad for a registry cleaner. It this the new firefox homepage?????

hello, this sounds like a problem possibly caused by adware on your pc. please go to firefox > addons > extensions & remove any suspicious entries (toolbars, things that you have not installed intentionally, don't know what purpose they serve, etc). also go to the windows control panel / programs and remove all toolbars or potentially unwanted software from there and run a full scan of your system with the security software that you have in place and different other tools like the free version of malwarebytes & adwcleaner.

Remove a toolbar that has taken over your Firefox search or home page Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware

afterwards please install the search reset addon - it will revert the most common customizations those adware programs do in firefox back to the default: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/

I doubt if that is "the new Firefox homepage".

Exactly which version of Firefox are you using?

You can download the latest Firefox 23.0 version from here.
