Hi William, could you explain this in a little more detail. Are you searching using:

  • Google site at https://www.google.com/
  • Firefox's address bar
  • a search box in a built-in Firefox page
  • some other way

And then you get results on https://www.facebook.com/ instead of on Google?

If the problem is with the Firefox address bar/built-in search boxes, the top row of the drop-down usually tells you where Firefox is going to send your search query. Does that still say Google or does that say Facebook (or a service that uses Facebook)?
