I'm going to help you fix this hijacking problem when using search bar in Mozilla Firefox and I know nothing about hijacking, virus or malware.
You can type
about:cache?device=disk
into address bar of Firefox and it will bring up firefox Cache.
I did it in my recent cache and found these files.
I see something though it might be nothing.
some of these expiration dates are 1969 and if I am not mistaken 1969 was a while ago and those are sites I have been directed to from where I wanted to go.
Couldn't there be some way to find where in registry they dates are coming from or at least block site links with expiration dates that have come and gone a long time ago?
