How can I remove an address locked into my address line that will not go away?
The following address is in the address line and I cannot get rid of it: http://search.mykotlerino.com/results.html?c=1&v=insMac&t=1506&ap=1431332764335608&r=2cac5f0332cc526ba64611fb7d9514c6&q=firefox+help It always comes back. There is also a 503 error and it says the server is not available.
