That's SwitchHosts. Uninstalled it, removed from profile, but still FF starts with New tab and not Home Page. Is there a line in about:config that needs changing???

You usually can reset your home page from a blank tab to a particular page in the options dialog.

Tools > Options > General > "When Firefox starts"

Does that work or is something else overriding your choice there?

That didn't work. But, I did remember to do a System Restore, and that seems to have fixed it. SwitchHosts is no friend of mine. Even the MVP program has limits. I wish these programs did not try to take over my computer and they should have good uninstall features. Thanks for the reply. Walt
