The problem is like , I want to open gmail,, I type gmail and then Ctrl + Enter... it should open http://www.gmail.com, as in IE But actually it opens "http://www.questscan.com/?tmp=nemo_results_removelink2&prt=QstscanPB&keywords=gmail" and the page reflects irrelevant add links. atleast it should give the option I am looking for. I am depressed with it. This problem arises after the last upgrade of Firefox. If it is not resolved, I have to leave my favorite browser "Firefox".

- Open Firefox -> got to Help Menu -> select "Restart with Add-ons Disabled"

Firefox will close then it will open up with just basic Firefox. You can enable the Add-ons later. Check if its working.

Post a screenshot (use Print Screen, Paste the image on Windows Paint, Save it) of ALL the Add-ons installed on your Firefox.
