In Firefox, when I type 'news' into google instead of getting a list of links it takes me straight to the Financial Times website. Is this an issue with google or is Firefox being hyjacked?

Should have done this before posting: Tried different browsers, Opera and Chrome it's a Firefox thing. Question is how to fix.
