These tabs were open this morning on their own http://www.reimageplus.com/lp/sys/?tracking=dale&banner=direct&adgroup=direct&ads_name=direct&keyword=direct and http://www.qtrax.com/updatedone

I did not open these last night and I have had tabs open up telling me to update my Java but the web address is not for Java. I feel as if there is a security hole that is being exploited

I think is can be a malware or a addon.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to verify if the problem is a addon:

If the problem not disappear in Safe Mode try scann your PC:

Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.

You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:

Microsoft Security Essentials is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP if you don't already have one.

Further information can be found in the Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware article.
