I use MyPoints search and earn instead of google or yahoo search. I can still paste into Firefox's search bar but nothing happens when I paste into https://www.mypoints.com/emp/u/mysearch.vm I get points for my searches and now I have to manually type into the mypoints search bar.

Hello deeprouge, try Firefox Safe Mode to see if the problem goes away. Firefox Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily turns off hardware acceleration, resets some settings, and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).

If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:

  • Click the menu button New Fx Menu, click Help Help-29 and select Restart with Add-ons Disabled.

When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".

SafeMode-Fx35

If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension. Please follow the steps in the Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems article to find the cause.

To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.

When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.

thank you

I tried safe mode and the problem still existed. I then tried Refresh Firefox and the problem still existed. Since the problem still existed in both scenarios, there was no sense in troubleshooting the above steps. Thank you for taking the time to suggest a solution. Perhaps the problem exists in the mypoints.com side of things. I have contacted them as well, but without response, so far.
