How to stop multiple auto-switching to address bar every time I open a new tab and try to type something anywhere outside of address bar?

How to stop multiple auto-switching to address bar every time I open a new tab and try to type something anywhere outside of address bar? Like something just wants me to use that embedded search when u type something not-web-address in address bar and hit enter. And the most ridiculous thing is that it happens repeatedly on like every second, like I just move down from address bar and start typing again, but then again it switches me to address bar, and 3, 4 times like that. And the result is also that I can't see the address of that page.
I think its has something to do with my AVG antivirus, because this started the same time some AVG Nation started to appear in every new tab i open (and thats also irritating me, I read about it here on support.mozilla.org and it seems that the only solution is to completely reinstall Firefox, but I dont want to lose all my settings) but when i type something in address bar and hit enter it opens the search results in Google.
Please try to help me, I like Firefox but I must switch to Chrome until I fix this problem.
Thanks in advance

First, please update to Firefox 32. 22 is no longer support nor is it secure. Then let us know if you still have this problem. [[Update Firefox to the latest version]]

Every time Firefox opened

Firefox can have multiple home pages if you wish. Each home page that will open when starting Firefox is separated by the "|" character.
See: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page
To have new tabs open a specific web site, add one of the following extensions:
http://sogame.awardspace.com/newtaburl/
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/777

I want my home page to open every time I open a new tab. Where is the setting for that?

When I open a new tab it is always blank. I want it to automatically open to my home page every time I open a new tab.
I thought I found a setting for this, but I can not find it now.

There is no setting for this, but you can do that by using an add-on such as:
* NewTabURL - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/newtaburl
* New Tab Homepage - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/new-tab-homepage
Another way of opening the home page in a new tab is to middle click on the home button in the navigation toolbar.

How to make firefox open a blank page every time i open a new tab

Due to the recent update of Firefox to version 16.0 it opens my most visited websites every time i open a new tab i want it to do what it used to do all the time i want it to open a blank page every time i open a new tab.
thank you.

hello yon1000, please refer to [[New Tab Page – show, hide and customize top sites]] in order to switch the feature off.

Every time I open a new tab, it no longer goes to the standard "you've opened a new tab" page, but to a searchwebsite of Babylon. How do I fix this?

Every time I open a new tab, it no longer shows the standard Firefox "new tab" page, but a search-website by Babylon. I don't know how to fix this.

To revert to Google as your preferred search engine, please do the following.
* In the location bar, type '''about:config''' and hit Enter.
* In the filter at the top, type: '''keyword.URL'''
* Double click it and remove whatever's in there and replace it with http://www.google.com/search?q=
The URL to add in "keyword.URL" becomes a link in this post, so right click it and choose "Copy Link Location" to copy it to the Windows clipboard. Then hit CTRL+V to paste it. Saves you having to type the whole thing.
'''To reset your home page, do the following'''.
* Go to the site you want to set as your homepage.
* Click the orange Firefox button and go to '''Options '''| '''Options '''| '''General'''
* Make sure it says "''Show My Homepage''" in the first dropdown menu.
* Click the button called "'''Use Current Pages'''" to set the homepage to the one you have on the screen.
After you complete the above steps, install this add-on to prevent another search engine from modifying your preferences: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/browserprotect/
It's possible that ''Babylon ''will add itself to more than one place in '''about:config'''. Therefore, after completing the above steps, open about:config again, type "''babylon''" in the filter at the top and for every instance where you see a setting with that name in it, right click it and choose ''''''Modify ''''''and then ''''''Reset''''''. Then close Firefox and restart it. See example screenshot.
Babylon search and toolbar will be installed with an IM chat client called ''Digsby'' if you don't opt out of it during the installation. See the info at the foot of this page: http://techshali.com/digsby-instant-messenger-and-email-manager-social-networks/

Why does this spam site load every time I open a new tab?

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?

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.

Every time I open a new tab my older tab disappears.

Every time I open a new tab my older tab disappears. The old page is still open, but I cannot see it. How do I fix this?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

Music plays every time I open a new tab. New problem. Nothing stops it. HELP!

This is something that just started and it's driving me crazy. Every time I open a new tab, irritating music starts to play. I have done all the other solutions I saw, including installing and then disabling CoolPreview, which I never had to start with. I have done a complete system scan and no malware was found. don't know what is causing this but I want it to end. I have not added any new add-ons or extensions. It sounds like cheesy video game music or PCH music. Any ideas?

I found out what was happening!
ginabgood1 mentioned music from PCH, I, foolishly, signed up with them too (then unsubscribed because they were sending me TONS of "entries" constantly) and it was after that I had this problem.
Even though there was not a link to them on my new tab page the music would play every time I opened a new tab.
What I did was start deleting the links at the bottom right of the page, I eventually had a PCH link page show up and deleted it. The music has now stopped playing whenever I open a new tab.

Every time I open a new Tab the Yahoo Web Search page appears. How do I remove Yahoo from displaying content on each Tab I open?

Why is Firefox opening a popup every time i open a new tab and even when i start Firefox?

Every time i open a new window or new tab im getting a popup with the Firefox logo at top left corner of the popup!
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== not sure

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
