I've already went to about:config and browser.newtab.url but when I try to reset it or Modify it, nothing happens, the words become unbolded and the reset text greys out but other than that this conduit.com thing stays there. I want to get the original new tab I had with my site pinned ect.

You can check in "Windows Control Panel > Programs" for recently installed programs to see if anything from Conduit or any other suspicious software like Search Protect shows up.

  • Control Panel > Programs > Programs and Features > Uninstall or change a program
  • Click the Installed column to sort by this heading

If you do not keep changes after a restart or otherwise have problems with preferences, see:
