Hi, thanks for the help
I followed the link supplied by Charley M and followed the testing.
When I changed my FF Tools>Options>Main preference to 'Show a Blank Page' this did not 'stick' and it returned to 'Home Page' when I relaunched FF, so it seems my Profile was corrupt.
I read the instructions and was confused, I searched around and found some more instructions for creating a new Profile and deleting the old but I could not understand most of what was written, I'm old and new to computers
So, I tried the long and winding road:
• I went to FF Bookmarks>Organize Bookmarks>Import and Backup>Export HTML and saved my Bookmarks to the Desktop.
• I uninstalled FireFox using RevoUnInstaller and set it for the full clean out. Sorry, I can't remember the name but it is the bottom option on the page.
• Restarted my Netbook
• Downloaded and installed FireFox
• Installed NoScript then restarted FF
• Exited FF and launched it again and only my HomePage came up, all is good
• Bookmarks>Organise Bookmarks>Import and Backup>Import HTML to get my Bookmarks back
• Installed my FF theme and AdBlock Plus
• Had a cup of coffee and thought what a great day it is
• Wrote this message
I guess there was an easier way like deleting the Default folder or something but I feel good about starting afresh and FF does seem 'snappier' or maybe it's just that my mood is better
Thanks again for taking the time to help me it is very much appreciated
All the best, woz of oz
