Fine, but how can I stop getting that page to load every time I start Firefox? It's like they hijacked my start page.
Go to answer 6Thank you for the reply, but I am already up to date. That brings up another problem, which is that sometime last year I got 'updated' to Firefox ESR. Don't know why. I guess that's a question for another thread though.

More Information
You can get a plugin check on startup if you have plugins (Tools > Add-ons > Plugins) that are blocklisted by Mozilla,either because of security vulnerabilities or by causing excessive crashes and thus are disabled.

when you go to firefox > help > troubleshooting information what version & user agent is listed there?
Version: 10.0.12 User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:10.0.12) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/10.0.12
ok, yes that's the ESR release but not the latest normal firefox version for end users that should fix the issue - please go to getfirefox.com, download the setup file for firefox 18.0.1 & install it on top of your current installation.
Thanks again. I downloaded the latest version and all went well. However, I still got the plugin check page. On the page I noticed that my plugin for Foxit reader said 'Unknown plugin' & 'Research' rather than 'Up to date' like the others. So I disabled it and then enabled it again, and the page does not load any longer. Thanks so much for all your responses.
