I would like to get the set of tabs I can customize with Firefox. But instead, I get Google.com every time I open a new tab. How can I fix it?

Hi,

Type "about:config" without quotes in the address bar and hit enter. Get past the warning message and search for browser.newtab.url and reset it or double click it and change whatever in it to "about:newtab" without quotes.

Hope that helps
