    Instead of a regular window the program now opens a Bing window. I have to open a new window and X out the Bing window to get the normal startup.

    How can I fix this?

    Type 'about : preferences#home' (no quotes, no spaces) in Firefox addy bar - and then at the page, select your homepage, new page and new tabs. Your choices are:

    1. Firefox home page (which you can customize)
    2. you specify a webage
    3. blank page

    Also if the steps in post #2 don't work you can always refresh firefox back to it's original settings.
