    Few days ago, i install a software from website search.imesh.com. After that the new tab url changed to http://www.search.imesh.com. Then I install the NetTabURL add on and set the url as http://www.google.com, even i restart it again, but when i open the new tab, it opens the same url as previous. What should i do for it?

    @himanshu It may be either the imesh software reset your browser settings while loading. Try installing newtab addon first then imesh software. It may resolve the problem.

    @Awanish Singh Not sure what issue you are facing, but it works absolutely fine with Firfox. I am using this with Firfox 4.0.1.

    Let me know if you face any problem with this.
