Why does Firefox redirect my Google search bar queries to the Google homepage?

Whenever I type a query on the search bar (set to Google), the browser would load the results - then a second later, it redirects the results page to the Google homepage.

How can I prevent this from happening? I would like the results page to stay, as per normal :(

Fyi, Google Chrome doesn't have this problem.

OK, it's the OptimizeGoogle extension. Disabled, and it subsides.

But I never had this problem as recently as last week, even with that extension enabled.
