Hi SeanATC, Have you tried with Some Malware Removal Tools ? Like Adware Hitman Pro or MalwareBytes ? If not ,please do a try with them .

Also there might be chance that this comes due to express installation of recently softwares. So, dig into that also by system control panel and search for the recently installed software.

Now one thing you can also do from firefox itself that :

type about:config into url bar and hit enter . the next screen may ask you about warranty violation but as of now click on 'yes'. Now in search bar write browser.sear and click on reset[by right click] browser.search.defaultenginename onto this. similarly reset others too :

after this ,goto about:addons and remove if there any instance of mysearch (in Extensions tab). Now restart your browser and see that search url changed or not.
