Firefox started, instead of auto filling in the site link with items from history that might be appropriate, trying to search the web instead. How do I go back?

Before last night, when I typed far I'd get as the top of my list fark.com. Now, instead, it tries to search for Farmers Insurance, Farmville, and Farrah Abraham-- how do I turn that off?

It was an add-on, thanks- behavior didn't appear in safe mode. So I just reset firefox- when in doubt, burn it with fire and salt the earth.
