In Firefox 18.0.2 when opening google.com it always opens with https and when a google search is performed I'm redirected, why?
FFox 18.0.2 always opens in secure mode: https://www.google.com Upon performing a search in google many times the result from FF redirects me to a different page.

Do the steps at Websites look wrong or appear differently than they should help?
The matter is getting redirected to a completely different site. I noticed that my office pc comes up as https://google.com and gives me trouble while my home pc comes up to http://www.google.com and I don't have these redirect issues.

Reset Firefox
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information. Note: This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.
To Reset Firefox do the following:
- Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
- Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
- Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
- Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
