I usually search engine google.com in English, but recently I try to search adding key word on the FF search box and click the enter key, the result is yahoo.co.j in Japanese. Is it Spam? I don't use yahoo.co.jp search. I setup on about:preferences#search. it doesn't show yahoo.co.jp. But it appears after searching.
