Hello, I have this problem in my computer that every time I open the search engines (Firefox and Google Chrome), several new tabs are coming out of no where without actually searching them. How can I stop them?

Welcome to the community!
 
What are in the tabs?  Is it pages you were previously on, or is it pop-up ads?  If the former, then you can change that in the settings to not re-open all the tabs you had open.  If the latter, then you might have some malware and should do a scan.
