Every time I open a new tab in Firefox, it loads this specific search engine. This has never been my Home Page, and my preferences are set to show a blank page when I open a new window or tab.

Why is this happening? What can I do to fix this?

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).


Do a malware check with some malware scanning programs.
You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.
