Try uninstalling that StartNow Toolbar 2.3.0 which is disabled. Known to be a carrier of Bing-related crap.

did this solve the problem, unknown, I will have to wait about a week to see if I still have the problem, but I did remove the startnow tool bar, but this seems to bring up a new question, does disable not work or is firefox lying to me and just saying something is disabled when it's not really disabled.
