Drag and drop the search bar into the pop up box.
whats a pop up box?
Its in the tab bar section
a separate window.
I tried that already. It doesnt drag like the toolbar stuff. Its like a default tab
also it wont drag sideways like regular tabs either
can you post a picture?
and also a list of your "about:support" page....typed in the url address bar.
should be a button to "copy to clipboard".

heres a pic, i have to leave now . let me know what you come up with Thanks
the "search here" box is a problem with adware on your pc. remove any suspicious entries (toolbars, things that you have not installed intentionally, don't know what purpose they serve, etc) in firefox > addons > extensions. also go to the windows control panel / programs and remove all toolbars or potentially unwanted software from there and do a full scan of your system with the security software that you have in place and also different tool like the free version of malwarebytes.

for the other issue mentioned see: Firefox says it's just updated every time it starts - how to fix
