Firefox keeps opening an old tab. How can I stop this?
When I open Firefox, it not only opens a tab with my home page but a second tab which contains an old search that I did. How can I get it to stop? I am using Firefox 30.0 and it states it is up to date as of today 7/13/14. I have Windows 7 as an operating system.

Your System Details list shows that you have two pages set as multiple home pages:

Firefox supports multiple home pages separated by '|' (pipe) symbols.

You may have inadvertently set two homepages. See - How to set the homepage

I did indeed have 2 home pages set. Eliminating the 2nd one solved the problem. Thank you.
