More information about the error I mean, not about the support website.
It's a bug if Firefox is hijacking it's own browser, don't ya think? I'm not an idiot so don't treat me like one, the post was written so a 10 year old can understand.
There are not enough information in this bug to get this fixed. Please reopen if you have steps to reproduce that are working.

It's like bizarro world, my browser gets hijacked by Mozilla, I report it and get no help, but I get trolled. My first comment is the info you need, how hard is it to read 2 sentences. UPDATE 9.0.1 after this update was applied, whenever I open my browser, the above url provided becomes my home page, my previous homepage opens up in a second window/tab How is this resolved? Your 'support' person can't write a proper sentence and closes an unresolved issue. What a bunch of jerks, thanks for nothing
