I work on a Mac at home (on which I use Safari, which also has tabbed browsing native, but I never use - can't find a purpose for it). At work I am using Firefox 1.something on a POS HP running XP. Is there someplace I can check to see if I DO have a plug-in mysteriously installed?

Tools --> Extensions should bring up a list of whatever you have installed (I don't know what it shows if you have nothing installed.

Because I hadn't chosen to add any actual FF extentions I hadn't thought to check there: d'oh! I DO have the Yahoo toolbar (I think I opted for that when I was messing around with my SBC account) -- and lo: there is "tab mix plus" right underneath. So, maybe I got it with the toolbar...or maybe it was just bundled with my initial DL of FF and I didn't notice. Either way I consider the mystery (for my browser at least) solved! Thanks Alex: color yourself correct!

On Firefox, when I open a new page it is blank. Does anyone know how to assign a page to open everytime when you hit 'New Tab'?

Don't know if there's a way to do it by default, but the Tab Mix plus add-on that Alex mentions above has that functionality.

It appears there is an about:config option for this (browser.tabs.loadonnewtab) that handles this and setting it to 1 should cause a new tab to load your default home page but it isn't working for me.

Do you still have Tab Mix installed? Perhaps that's overriding it.

dagnabbit... everytime I see the title of this thread, I think "They're remaking the Clint Eastwood steals a Soviet superplane movie?"...

The spellcheck has spoiled me. Any application I use that doesn't have in-line spellcheck, I'm paralyzed.
