new window opens additional second empty tab
when i open a new window (f.e. a login-screen or sth) i always get an additional new blank tab in front of. its really annoying, because after logging in the blank tab in the new window stays open. what can i do to quit this behaviour? its only on this pc. never had this before...

What is the home page setting if you check the value of the browser.startup.homepage pref on the about:config page?
Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
- Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.

You can check the home page setting:
- Tools > Options > General > Startup: Home page
Firefox supports multiple home pages separated by '|' (pipe) symbols.
i read this somewhere before, but it doesn't solve the problem.
