When i open a new tab in Firefox, the yahoo website will open automatically in this tab. How can i prevent any website from opening in my new tabs? I just want to open an empty tab.

You click on new tab, a new tab opens, but the tab is opened as the yahoo homepage. I accidentally downloaded the yahoo toolbar as malware the other day. This toolbar is really imposible to remove. It's not in the sofware add/remove menu, i've tried with several anti-malware sofware, they didn't succeed.

Now, i already made the toolbar invisible, but it still has a place in the firefox menu at the top of the browser, and like i said, it keeps opening itself in a new tab.

A new tab opens by default as a blank tab (about:blank).

If that isn't the case then an extension has changed that behavior.
