Hi

This support article will help you to remove recent activity from the new tab page:

I deactivated recent activity before I noticed the problem! That article doesn't help at all!

The "support.mozilla" shortcut was added by Firefox right now just because I visited it to reply to you!

I DO NOT WANT THAT!!!

Just because I visited a website doesn't mean I want or need a shortcut to it!

How can I stop Firefox from this violation of my privacy?
