I have my home page set up fine, but when i open a new tab it loads "delta serach" instead of the old layout of my most visited pages.
something has reset my new tab page to delta search, i want the original layout back with the page thumbnails of most visited pages that i had before. please help. very annoyed at delta for taking liberties in my browser settings.
