I have updated my browser to firefox v20 and all my search engines are gone from my search bar. I also cannot add any search engines.

I'm having the same problem. I am on a domain with server 2008 R2 roaming profile. Clients vary from XP to 8. Seems to disable on a per profile bases.

There appears to be a problem with Firefox 20 with UNC paths when using roaming profiles on a server.

This is currently investigated and tracked via this bug report.
