After running a Firefox update today one of these two bits of type show up automatically in the search bar after entering bing.com. What do they mean/what are they? Thanks! https://www.bing.com/?toWww=1&redig=27019EAAF0C6407DB7EFC732ABB8EC5F http://www4.bing.com/

Hi, it would seem they are alternate address, all sites as big as that will have them to move traffic around but you can check to make sure please : You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:

Microsoft Security Essentials is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista if you don't already have one. Windows 8/10 have antivirus protection built-in.

Further information can be found in the Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware article.
