When I launch Firefox, the same six tabs open to the same six sites every time. I've been a Firefox user for years and this just started happening a few weeks ago. I would like just one tab to open...How do I get it back to the way it was?

You have choices between opening Firefox with tabs and widows from last time or using a homepge or series of home pages.

There is also an evolving feature on the newtab page with tiles, again there are settings to modify this.

Aditionally some people will have problems because of third party toolbars, adware or malware.
