How can I stop the 'BrandThunder.com page opening when I open a new tab?
Hi
When I open Firefox for the first time I get a blank page. This is what I want, but when I open more tabs I get the 'BrandThunder' web page. How can I stop this?

If you still have Personas Interactive installed, you can go into the preferences and just uncheck the box on the Search page that says "Use WebSearch+ on new tab page"
You can access these preferences by clicking on the lightning bolt on the lower left on the add-on bar and selecting Preferences.
If you don't have Personas Interactive or any Brand Thunder theme installed, but you are still seeing the new tab page, I apologize for that. It was an uninstall bug that is fixed on our latest version.
We created a restartless add-on that you can install that fixes the problem. It installs, fixes the problem, then uninstalls:

If you would like to do this yourself, you can type about:config in the browser, search on browser.newtab.url in the Filter box and then right click on the preference and click reset.

Type about:config in the URL bar and hit Enter.
If you see the warning, you can confirm that you want to access that page.
Put BrandThunder.com in the searchbar at the top, then right-click and select Reset for any preferences that appear with BrandThunder.com. Then restart Firefox.
