When i open new tab would like to see most visited websites

when i open new tab would like to see most visited websites and the recent history, similar to Google Chrome and Safari Browsers. I remember Firefox having this feature, but don't know if still available or how to activate. Thanks

Babylon malware injected into Firefox seems to have many causes and as a result many fixes.
See this [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/search?q=Babylon&num_voted=0&num_votes=&asked_by=&answered_by=&q_tags=&created=0&created_date=&updated=0&updated_date=&sortby=0&a=1&w=2 search for Answers threads mentioning Babylon] to see what other similarly affected users have found to fix it for them.
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

  • When I open new tabs it is an AOL tab. I have Fire F as my homepage? How do I change this?

    I set my home page to mozilla or yahoo, but when I open new tabs it keeps bringing up AOL search engine. I don't want this b/c it is useless and always brings up irrelevant search results. How do I change what tabs open up after homepage is set?

    You should just be able to choose whatever search engine you prefer

    There is however a possibility you may have some toolbar or other software installed that is changing setting. Initially look in your Firefox addons and Windows control panel for unwanted software

    Software? See if you can get it removed with some anti-malware tools. Spybot, AVG, Kapersky, et cetera...
    If you know the name of the program, you could search the registry for any instance of that name and --be CAREFUL--delete them.
    And I have to ask: Did you go back to Firefox after uninstalling this program and reset the "when I open a new tab..." setting? What about your home page?

  • When I open Safari I would like to show the google page. How?

    When I open Safari, I would like the Google page showing. How do I do that?

    Create a shortcut on the home screen.
    Navigate to the Google site in Safari. Tap the Arrow icon next to the url field at the top and select - Add to Home Screen. That will put a shortcut on your home screen that you can tap on and it will open to that Google site.

  • Have recently updated firefox. Previously, opening a new tab, cursor would be in google's search field, as google was my home page; now when I open new tab, cursor appears in url bar; this is bugging me a lot. How do I fix this setting?

    That issue can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly.

  • When I open new tab, it will go onto new tab then jump to another page without me touching it.

    When I open a new tab, it will be the new tab page, the one with the most viewed sites for 2 seconds. Then, it will suddenly change to another site without me doing anything. It isnt just one tab, its all tabs. please help me just get onto the most viewed.

    Hi Pancakeater,
    What kind of site is opened after 2 seconds? Does it look like advertisement? It could be that your Firefox installation has been hijacked. Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.
    You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:

  • When I open new tabs, their names will get stuck at whatever name they are first given and will not change as I navigate within them. For example, a tab will stay named "New Tab" or "Connecting..." Any advice/solutions to fix this behavior?

    My problem is as the title suggests.
    When I open a new tab, the title displayed on the tab will stay stuck at whatever the tab is first titled after it is opened- usually "New Tab" or "Connecting..."
    The names will stay stuck at those names even if I navigate within the tabs to different pages or refresh the tabs/pages.

    I only had to disable TabRenaminizer, and everything is working just fine now. Thanks a bunch!

  • When I open new tabs, how do I set my tabs to open to the same web page every time?

    I have my home page set, but I don't see an option to set what site my tabs open with. I did have a website opening in my tabs, but it wasn't a change I made. According to one of the help articles, an extension may have changed what site kept appearing in new tabs. Now, my tabs are back to the eight tiles, but I'd like to set them to a specific website. How do I make this change to my tabs?

    You will have to open the <b>about:config</b> page and set the new tab page by changing the value of the browser.newtab.url pref via the right-click context menu as stated in the KB article.
    You can open the <b>about:config</b> page via the location/address bar.
    You can accept the warning and click "I'll be careful" to continue.

  • When I open a new tab, instead of showing my most visited sites, it automatically brings me to a website I haven't favorited or visited.

    Pretty much as the question states. Whenever I open a new tab, it directs me to this site called Babylon Search, some sort of search engine-looking website that I suspect could contain malware or something of the like. I've tried everything I can and searched through all of the help topics to find a way to restore the ability to preview my most-visited sites without any luck.
