Everytime FF opens its in the manual proxy setting at 'local host' port 55758. I have run a complete virus scan (Panda), I have reinstalled FF. I disabled add-ons and restarted in safe mode and it was OK but when I disable the addons individually nothing changes. Also (maybe related) when I enter a search (no matter what engine) the results look normal but when I click on a search result, I am redirected to some bs site, everytime and with every search result.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
