When I try to open any web page, a dialog box opens up "Opening search". It asks me 'What should Firefox do with this file?'

What methods have you tried to open pages, and what results do you get?
(1) Bookmark
(2) Type full url, e.g., www.google.com
(3) Click a search result
(4) Run a search from Firefox search bar, home page, or address bar?
