Why will not my start up page remain from log in to log in?
By down loading latest version of Firefox I, all by a sudden, will not be able to sustain my start up page as I decided, but do instead get "http://hp.myway.com/easypdfcombine/ttab02/index.html?p2=&n=&ptb=&si=&st=hp", whatever that is. Please help me to avoid this annoying disturbance. Otherwise I have to consider changing browser.
Sincerely

Hi !
No need to consider another browser - this is not Firefox'es fault. You've picked up some malware, cause this MyWay is a browser hijcaker, which you of course will want to get rid of.
Go to the 3-bar menu (or 'Tools') => Addons => Extensions and (besides CouponXplorer) look for any unfamiliar or suspicious looking extensions, like e.g. :
SafeSearch Incognito SearchAssist Incognito Search for Fire Fox 1.6 SafeSearch ch SafeSearch net Converter.onesearch org File Convertor and Search Addon Findwide Search Engine 1.7
When you find any : remove them.
Do the same in your system's Control Panel.
However : most malware will be 'hiding' somewhere , so let's run malware scans :

Run most or all of the listed malware scanners.
They all work differently - what one program doesn't pick up, the other might.
