How do I change where a new tab opens?

When I used to open a new tab, it would be a blank page. Now, a new tab opens to the AVG Secure Search page. How can I change it back or change it to, say, the Google search page? Thx.

To change the option in AVG, see second section, "AVG search on newly opened Firefox tabs", of the following page:

I am not an AVG user, therefore I do not know what options are offered in the above. After setting the above to "None" or similar option, if offered, you can install the following and set the options to load whatever page you want to open in a new tab (Add-ons > Extensions > New TabURL > Options):

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
