Chosen solution

also check if the shortcut you're using to open firefox is manipulated. right-click it, go to properties > shortcut and make sure that the only thing the target line contains is the path to firefox.exe (without www.google.nl/firefox as argument at the end)...

Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.
