Home Page Reloads When running Firefox
Hello, I am having a bit of trouble. Every time I launch Firefox, I can use it like normal. I can even go to a website. But after about 5 seconds, the browser reloads the homepage. This wouldn't be that bad if it wasn't a surefire event, but it is. It happens every time, even if I stay on the homepage. I'm just wondering if it's something to be concerned about and if there's a way to fix it. Opening new tabs and windows while Firefox is already running doesn't cause it to occur.

Once a webpage is loaded, the browser should wait for you to tell it to do something.
What are you using as your homepage?
Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link}
A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?

I started it and safe mode and the reload did not happen. As for the homepage, I use the default Firefox one.
UPDATE: After returning to normal Firefox, the issue is no more. I am not sure what was causing it but after ending the process and relaunching outside of Safe Mode, the homepage does not reload anymore. I'm not sure why one Safe Mode boot was all it took, but I am glad that it's gone. Thank you for the help.
