When I open a new tab in Firefox, my most visited sites appear in a grid. How do I get rid of this? Not that I'm trying to hide anything :). It's just that having Facebook keep popping up all the time. It is distracting me from my work.

This isn't normal behavior. You should be getting a blank page.

It's most probably an add-on that you have installed, maybe New Tab King.

Find the add-on and disable it to get rid of this behavior.

I don't know if there is another way but this should work:

Tools->Addons, disable "Google Toolbar for Firefox"
