Location bar not searching

This started when I setup a vpn into my employers network so I can work from home. Now whenever I use the location bar to search I end up at the company website unless I enter a valid URL. The vpn is disabled but this is still happening.

Check the connection settings.

If you do not need to use a proxy to connect to internet then select "No Proxy".

See "Firefox connection settings":
