Does the Adblock Plus or the NoScript extension help?

Does the issue take place at normal sites like http://www.mozilla.org?

Firefox allows multiple home pages, make sure that this site has not been set as a home page - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page

Hi, this is not the home page, I have checked and the safe norton search is the home page and this other page just pops up occasionallyunrequested.

Hi, yes it does happen on mozilla.org. I have avoided any more downloads as I figured running both Malware and Norton this shouldnt happen anyway. I am not technical and struggle with the software I have already!

This is my home page . When I start a search on the page, eg: last one was UK only search for cloakroom basins, i started to click on the search results (those tagged safe sites only)and browse the second Mozilla page just pops up, it appears as another tab on the tabs bar, it does not open to replace the page I am on.
