Currently, when I open a new tab it opens the link: www.trovi.com/?gd=&ctid=CT3319434&octid=EB_ORIGINAL_CTID&ISID=M459AF87E-8AB0-4B6A-A34D-064E914C7FA7&SearchSource=69&CUI=&SSPV=&Lay=1&UM=6&UP=SPA3AF2F27-D42C-4173-8A38-27AFBD8762AC

If nothing else, I would like to have it open a new tab with my home page link instead.

Hi, you have a malware problem, so please try working through Remove Trovi from Chrome, Firefox and Internet Explorer by Malware Tips.

Note that not all programs will detect all malware, so you may need to run several or all of them.

After removal you may need to reset your New Tab page etc., to default, which you can do by running SearchReset.

If instead of the default new tab page (tiles) you want a different one, type about:config into the address bar, press Enter, accept the warning, scroll down to browser.newtab.url and right click > Modify, to change 'about:newtab' to the URL of your choice - Firefox Start Page would be about:home You may then need to restart Firefox.

If your question is resolved by this or another answer, please take a minute to let us know. Thank you.
