Hi, When F'fox starts it goes to 'https://www.google.co.uk/?gws_rd=ssl'. My home page/newtab url set to 'https://www.google.co.uk' about:config settings are also 'https://www.google.co.uk' This is second time this has happened in past couple of years. I cannot remember how I resolved it last time and nothing on web works. I do not want to install adware removal software. I am in UK using Windows 7 Home Premium, Firefox 47, How do i get rid of this. Your help would be greatly appreciated
