Only in Firefox browser when a person types in Buddhist Church of San Francisco they are taken to a link that leads them to a Canadian pharmacy. Why?

I work at the Buddhist Church of San Francisco. When others trying to find our website search in Modzilla: "Buddhist Church of San Francisco" They are taken to a link that looks like our home page bcsfweb.org. When they click on the link, they are taken to a Canadian pharmacy. I've been getting calls that we've been hacked. When you type bcsfweb.org into the url bar, our site comes up. When you search Buddhist Church of San Francisco in Chrome or Safari you are taken to our home page. It's just Modzilla. I've notified them through email and haven't received a response. I've left a voicemail on an 800 customer service number no response.

Any ideas why this might be happening or how to navigate to the right office to notify Modzilla of this problem?

Thank you,

First, please update to Firefox 32, Firefox 12, which you are running, is very out of date and has many known bugs.

after updating, can you please walk through the steps that cause this to happen? When I go to http://bcsfweb.org/ I get taken to a buddhist website, which I'm assuming is yours.

Yes. Your website's server has been hacked. This happens when you click a search result on the Google results page and the referrer is enabled (network.http.sendRefererHeader = 2).

So you need the check the DNS servers.

Hello,

Tyler, she CAN NOT update firefox to latest 32, she has 10.5 (Firefox no longer works with Mac OS X 10.5), 16 is the last version of Firefox for that OS.Maybe she can update the OS since she has an Intel Mac.

thank you
