How can I stop an unwanted additional homepage from loading?

more options

This is one of those weird issues that doesn't happen every time. Some times, when I click to open Firefox, another, smaller window opens to a website that I do not know. This is not only annoying but it concerns me since I have never changed my homepage from when I loaded Firefox. The website address is - techblog4uonly.blogspot.com - if that makes any difference. I have tried resetting my homepage and I deleted the shortcut for Firefox, but I still get it some times.

I have a screen shot of what it looks like if that will help .... but I do not see an option to load it

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:

  1. Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
  2. Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
  3. Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
  4. Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.


Further information can be found in the Refresh Firefox - reset add-ons and settings article.

I tried the solution and the pop-up does not open any more on starting firefox. But I think Firefox still tries to connect to this site (techblog4uonly.blogspot.in) in background. Have a look at the snapshot.

Looks to me as some kind of virus, which has nothing to do with Firefox.

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:

Microsoft Security Essentials is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP if you don't already have one.
