Typing in a search on either google or yahoo does nothing, it simple says page cannot be found. AOL will search. Also anything already on yahoo homepage will open when I click on it. So I downloaded Firefox today and it still will not search. I type in anything on the Firefox search box and it says it cannot find the site

If there is a problem with the build-in about:home page then try to reset the search engine used on the about:home page.


Reset the browser.startup.homepage_override.mstone pref via the right-click context menu to the default on the about:config page and close and restart Firefox to restore the about:home page to its default.

  1. Open the about:config page via the location bar
  2. Type in the Filter bar: mstone
  3. Right-click the browser.startup.homepage_override.mstone line and select: Reset
  4. Close and restart Firefox

If this didn't help then delete the delete the chromeappsstore.sqlite file in the Firefox Profile Folder and repeat the above.
