Not sure why, but my tab page with the 9 boxes is gone and replaced by some thing that piggy backed off another download. How do I get it back?

I had the 9 box, new tab screen set up and liked it a lot. Had to download something and something called Delta Search piggy backed off the download and replaced my new tab page. Never had this issue before and I'd really like my original tab page back. Not sure how to reset it on Mozilla.

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:
