please go to firefox > addons > extensions & remove any suspicious entries (toolbars, things that you have not installed intentionally, don't know what purpose they serve, etc). also go to the windows control panel / programs and remove all toolbars or potentially unwanted software from there and run a full scan of your system with the security software that you have in place and different other tools like the free version of malwarebytes & adwcleaner.
Remove a toolbar that has taken over your Firefox search or home page
afterwards you can install the search reset addon - it will revert the most common customizations those adware programs do in firefox back to the default: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/
Thanks Philipp...the thing is that I don't see Delta installed anywhere...not on the seach engine list and not in my programs...
could you go to firefox > help > troubleshooting information, copy the contents of that page and paste them here into a reply on the forum? this might give us a clue what is going on...
delete the user.js file in your profile folder, if its there, you can check, see the link below.
First, look in control panel and uninstall Browser Protect and Saveshare (or similarly named program). Then reset firefox settings manually or run adwcleaner scan. I think you have no USer.js file. There is another possibility for delta to hijack your starting page, that is changing the shortcut to firefox.
