This is annoying when you are trying to read the content of the page. You have to press back and try to find the place you werte before. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Go to any website 2. After a random time, I will be sent elsewhere, eg Google, Novell, etc 3.

Scan your computer for viruses and spyware, this is unlikely to be a firefox issue.

No response and this is most likely a spyware related problem. Reporter, please reopen if you have checked for spyware and are still experiencing problems.

(In reply to comment #1) > Scan your computer for viruses and spyware, this is unlikely to be a firefox issue. > This is Linux, not windoze. The problem was discussed in IRC (a few days back). It seems Firefox is started from a non-default location (program) which causes this. Place the start of FF on it's default place and it should be working normal again. (sorry for the poor explanation but i haven't got a clue about Linux)
