I use Duck duck go as my default search engine. I've noticed that after the last couple of updates, the default has changed to Google. This has not happened before. There must be a bug somewhere that is causing this to happen in the new version of Firefox.

This can happen when the search engine database file (search.json.mozlz4) gets damaged, possibly by malware, antivirus or security software interference.
