Why does Firefox redirect Google Scholar to a university login page?
When I try to go to Google Scholar, Firefox redirects me to my old university login page even though I am no longer affiliated with the university. I have tried deleting browser data and reinstalling Firefox, but the problem persists. This does not happen on other browsers.

You can check the connection settings.
- Tools > Options > Advanced > Network : Connection > Settings

If you do not need to use a proxy to connect to internet then try to select "No Proxy" if "Use the system proxy settings" or one of the others do not work properly.
See "Firefox connection settings":
