You might have a Firefox add-on that was not successfully removed. Have you checked here?

orange Firefox button or Tools menu > Add-ons

On the left, click Extensions. If there is a Remove button, try that. If there is only a Disable button, do that, but look to remove it in the Windows Control Panel.

After restarting Firefox and resetting your home page, hopefully that will stick.
