I downloaded an MP4 player and it did something to Mozilla such that every time I open a new tab it opens yahoo versus wait for a site address to find. How do I get rid of this nuisance?

Operating system

Windows XP2002 SP 3

Hello Jack C. Anderson,

this problem could probably be caused by a Firefox extension.

To make sure that no extension is causing the problems, start Firefox in Safe Mode by following the instructions in the Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode article.

Kind regards, Tobbi Firefox Support Volunteer
