When I start typing in the Google search box, a box now pops up which says: "you have chosen to open search, which is an application from http://www.google.ca. What should Firefox do with this file". Why?? Thank you.

Is someone ever going to address this issue? Attached is a jpeg of the box that pops up when I conduct search, I now notice it is when I am searching again after an initial search has already been conducted, and I am changing the terms. The page greys out and I get the pop up box below.
