I keep removing it as a preferred search engine, and every time I start a new session, it's back. There's already a thread on this in support. It's marked as closed, but doesn't actually provide any information on how to solve the problem,

Here's the URL to the other post: http://support.mozilla.com/tiki-view_forum_thread.php?locale=en-US&comments_parentId=594238&forumId=1

Using 3.6.7, but problem's been happening since 3.6.6

Peggy,

The Ask Toolbar, an add-ons you installed or accidentally installed with another program (AskTbTRL2/3.8.0.12304 in your user agent), is doing this.

Uninstall this add-on from your system.

  1. Close all open Web browsers
  2. From the "Start" menu in Windows, select "Control Panel"
  3. Select "Add/Remove Programs"
  4. Select the program with the Ask logo and the text "Ask Toolbar" (or a similarly named Toolbar)
  5. Click "Change/Remove"
