Search Icons are constantly appearing on pictures on websites that I visit, I think it's Yahoo Search that is causing this.

hello owenvb, please go to firefox > addons > extensions and remove Object Browser(which is likely malicious) and the yahoo toolbar if you suspect that it is injecting those icons...

Disable or remove Add-ons
