Firefox (or Mozilla) keeps opening 2 tabs every time I start the browser or click my Home button. The second tab is an ad to remind me to install Firefox on my smart phone. I have long had it on my phone but this annoying ad keeps popping up every time. How do I stop this? Once Mozilla sees that I have it installed on my phone, why don't they stop asking me?? Very annoying. This started upon installing the latest version of Firefox. Coincidence?

Type about:config<enter> in the address bar. If a warning screen comes up, press the I Accept the Risk button. At the top of the screen is a search bar. Type browser.startup.homepage

What is the value? Right-click and select Reset to restore its default value; about:home
