Are you using a Mac or are you on another platform?

On other platforms use:

  • Mac: Firefox > Preferences
  • Linux: Edit > Preferences
  • Windows: Firefox > Options

Press F10 if the menu bar is hidden on Windows and Linux or use "Firefox > Options/Preferences"

Make sure that it isn't set to the Firefox application.
