Hello,

You may have the Ask.com toolbar accidentally installed. If this is the case, see this article for a solution: Remove a toolbar that has taken over your Firefox search or home page Be sure to run the SearchReset Add-on step.

Let us know if this helps!

You can use the SearchReset extension to reset some preferences to the default values.

• https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/

Note that the SearchReset extension only runs once and then uninstalls automatically, so it won't show on the "Firefox > Add-ons" page (about:addons).

If you do not keep changes after a restart or otherwise have problems with preferences, see:

• http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved

Thank you both for your assistance. I believe it had to have been installed with a download. I do keep an eye on all of my downloads, but these companies keep making more and more deals to profit off us.

Thanks again <<<<>>>>
