WOT opens a new tab whenever I start Firefox, how do i stop it from doing that, it's irritating.
The add-ons WOT and Ghostery both open tabs whenever I start Firefox, I have my options set so that the tabs that were open when I close Firefox are what is supposed to open when I restart Firefox, but every time WOT and Ghostery tabs open up also. I have no idea why this is happening, I do not want to erase the add-ons, but I can't figure out how to stop this behavior short of that. Thank you in advance for your help.

Can you attach a screenshot?

Use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot.
If some specific tabs are reopening on each start them this can be caused by a problem with the prefs.js file that stores the preferences.
Did you try to delete the prefs.js file and other possible prefs-##.js files with a number?
You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:
