Issue

I have another kind of problem with Firefox

Description

I used to be able to starting typing a web address whenever I opened a new tab. But ever since I did a Firefox update, now I get this address whenever I open a new tab: chrome://vuze_remote/content/aboutTabs.htm. So then I have to select that address and delete it before I can start typing a link in the window. How do I get the address window to be blank again when I open a new tab?

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

I did a Firefox update

How do I shutdown the "Downloading the latest applications" box?

The box is above the sites tabs and below the toolbars and is taking up a lot of space. There doesn't seem to be a place to close the box and it just sits there running.

The current options for opening a new tab in firefox is to either open at the right hand end of the tab strip, or to open it at the right end of the related content tabs. If the number of tabs between the current tab and the new tab exceeds the number visible across the window, there is no visible indication that the click was successful and a new tab was opened. Is there a way to get Firefox to open a new tab to the right of the current tab but to the left of the related content tabs. This means that you would always see the new tab being opened. It would also mean that if you accidentally opened the tab in the foreground rather than the background, the related content tabs would still stay in order (albeit from right to left rather than the current left to right).

I accidently clicked on the wrong link in the notification email and closed my other topic. All the details can be found there, https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/forum/1/733503#threadId734327 In response to Morbos, disabling the theme and using the default doesn't help. Also, with the zoom, I really would like firefox itself to be bigger, like it normally is. I really don't know why this is the only program that this happens to :/
