if his is Google software you should ask them about the problem. Some Google software was deprecated not long ago. Basically modern browsers offer the features and so Google had no need to. Firefox has a Google search bar, with options to use alternative search engines. By default that is on the right and next to your addressbar. NOTE Firefox has a recent change and all Firefox searches now are usually configured to use only the search engine currently selected in the search bar. Look at the search bar and change the selected search engine (use the down arrow,does that help ?) It is possible you have malware or adware. * see also [[Remove a toolbar that has taken over your Firefox search or home page]] *[[What to do when searches take you to the wrong search website]] Edit ? gmail or google site problem ?
