How may I get Firefox to stop opening a tab about a Firefox survey I already completed?

more options

A Firefox survey popped up yesterday and I completed it. Now, each time I start up Firefox, this tab opens (pasted below) telling me that I already took the survey. How may I stop this tab from opening?

Thank you Pkshadow. Your advice and link led me to solve the problem. I opened Firefox, typed about:config, Enter, and searched "survey". This brought up the doorhanger line that caused the survey tab to keep opening upon starting up Firefox. I right clicked on this line and selected "reset" from the menu. The tab no longer appears. Thank you again!

You may have Firefox set to re-open tabs, open a new, empty tab, then close the tab with the survey.

Thanks!

Thank you Tyler. I tried that, but when I open Firefox, that survey tab opens with it still.

Copy/Paste about:studies into the Address Bar then opt out and it will take you to the box to uncheck.

Restart Firefox after either.
