Safe search refuses to turn off; reverts to "Moderate" when I attempt to turn safe search off. Browser is Firefox; home page is Bing

Hi,

Consider the possibility that malware on your computer may be overriding your SafeSearch settings, as this user reported: https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/websearch/xNUhooWMmQg

Safe Search is a website issue, not Firefox. Log into the website in question, and change its settings.

I changed settings and selected "Save" but nothing changed. I know this should be simple but----

And before you selected   'Save'   you definately   unchecked  Safe Search  ?

Yes. I definitely selected the "OFF" option for safe search and I definitely selected the "Save" option and I definitely selected the "Agree" option in the dialog box that pops up as soon as the "Save" option is selected. It seems as if "something" is interfering with the operation of either the "save" or "Agree" options although I have no idea what that could be. Maybe my computer is possessed. For what it's worth prior to yesterday (08/25/2016) I wasn't restricted to seeing filtered images. I "refreshed" Firefox by making use of a dialog box that showed up when I first logged onto my computer. The problem appeared following that.

Do you by any chance remember what that dialog box said exactly   ?

I don't remember exactly; it was something to the effect of "Refresh Firefox?" Since it appeared on my Bing home page I thought "Why not?" and was rewarded with another box informing me that I now have the latest version of Firefox. And that's when this current problem appeared.

I will do all that later in the day; it is 4:30 AM here and I'm not really awake at this time----I appreciate the step-by-step suggestions as I am an "older" person and I am not truly computer savvy. I should say that I appreciate all the suggestions I have received on this issue.

I ran Malwarebytes anti-malware (free version) which yielded a clean bill of health; no malware found. I also ran CCleaner. It may well be a coincidence but suddenly the problem is resolved and I'm content to accept that.

This is my first experience on this forum and I am very impressed by the level of support I received.

Thank you all; I'm grateful.
