Hmmm, it's not redirecting me at the moment.

That site uses a script from http://www.addthis.com/ to insert the sharing buttons for Twitter, Facebook, and +1 buttons. Since this is a widely used service, that could explain the pattern across a diversity of websites.

Do you use any add-ons or special settings that could affect your connection to Google, such as privacy or "disconnect" add-ons? There might be an interaction there. You can review your add-ons here:

orange Firefox button or classic Tools menu > Add-ons > Extensions category

You might try disabling everything nonessential, restarting Firefox, and seeing whether that makes any difference.

Sorry I missed that. Doesn't Firefox Home just send the links to Safari to open? Very odd.
