On opening page, when I click the Amazon icon it says its a search engine! Cant seem to make it just go to the page
The icon has a magnifying glass on it..no idea how it got there or why! Im a very new user of Firefox.

Hello catrose,
Apparantly the new tab page is your home page - should you want to see another page at startup (Firefox opens your home page at startup); you can set it to any page you like, see this article :

Back to your question :
The Amazon thumbnail you see listed on the new tab page, is indeed the Amazon search engine. You can change that and set it to Amazon.com (or any other page) :
Hover over the upper right corner of the thumbail till you see three little dots appear, and click on it. Then click on "Edit"; remove that URL and replace it with the URL of your choice.
You can set any page as one of Top Sites on the new tab page that way.
