When I open a second tab in Firefox, it does not go to my home page. Instead it goes to a page that displays what looks like a collection of pages (or links) that I have visited in the recent or distant past. I would much rather have it go to my home page which is much more useful to me. I have tried to change this in 'Options' but with no luck. Please fix this.

The 'about:home' page is not really what I was looking for. So when I followed the procedure as instructed, I entered 'www.google.com/firefox' as my home page instead of 'about:home'. It now seems to work like I wanted. Thank you Gingerbread_Man. I'll let you know if I have any more issues.
