Everytime I restart my computer, instead of having Google as my homepage it always switches to Startpage by Ixquick. Same thing happens when I highlight something- right click- search google, it switches me yet again to this silly Startpage (on the new tab). Search box on the right is also useless- whatever setting I use, it only directs me to Startpage. Funny thing is, once I turn on the computer and go to OPTIONS-GENERAL- etc. and set the google as homepage, the only thing that is doing it's job properly is the little house icon on the right. When I click on it, it takes me to google. The moment I turn off the computer, back to the start. I am using FF 19 an this has started to happen only few days ago, out of the blue. I have scanned the computer, did the anti-malware thing- nothing happened. Thanks for the answers !
