Today my wife received a cold call from a heater/ac guy. She gave him my number and told him to call me. When I got home I searched his phone number on google. Several options showed up and it showed that each of the links for the first 2 pages of searches were cached on my browser but I never visited any of the sites. Has my security been compromised?

It might have been preloading the web page into cache for faster loading times. I'm not sure if FF does this by default, so i'm not certain.
