Hi!

I suspect that one of your add-ons is taking over the address bar and messing up with it. Please, try to launch your browser in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode and make sure that it works fine. Once this is confirmed, you should disable any add-on that seems suspicious.

This article explains you how to manage your add-ons: Disable or remove Add-ons

How would I go about finding the add-on?

Thank you so much for your help. It was caused by the AVG Safe Search extension. It did not give me the option to upgrade or check the options. Is it ok to leave it disabled? Thanks again.
