every time I open window in new tab i get this search window: www.safesear.ch/?type=ntfr looks like malware to me, but I cannot get rid of. How do I get google as default home page AND new tab window home page?

hello, this sounds like a problem possibly caused by adware on your pc.

  1. please go to the firefox menu ≡ > addons > extensions & remove the "tab 1.0.2" entry - it looks suspicious
  2. also go to the windows control panel / programs and remove all toolbars or potentially unwanted software from there.
  3. finally, run a full scan of your system with different security tools like the free version of malwarebytes & adwcleaner, which are specialised in adware and browser hijackers.

Remove a toolbar that has taken over your Firefox search or home page
