How can I stop Firefox from going to an https url automatically even when I type in http?

more options

The browser is loading https websites even when I type in http. Asking for security certificates, etc. My home page is listed as http:// ....but when Firefox opens it, it is https:// I have changed the autobar fill in abbout:config, but it has had no effect. The only solution I've seen on the Internet so far is to switch to Chrome, something I'd prefer not to do. Running the latest Firefox 30 Thanks.

Google has recently started switching everything over to HTTPS, so you may want to check Google help about that.
