Why does right-click paste whatever I have copied into every search bar and bookmark?

Whenever I right-click after copying text, it automatically pastes. I can't edit my bookmarks nor rename them because it would automatically paste two links in my books marks window. Same thing happens with text boxes.

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode? http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode Don't select anything right now, just use "Continue in SafeMode."

If not, see this: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/troubleshooting+extensions+and+theme...

I had the same problem until I disabled the FastestFox extension. It is most probably a bad plugin.
