Is anyone else experiencing unstoppable ? or ! in the search or browser bars? I have to ctrl/alt/delete to get it to close.
I have been experiencing ? and ! marks being "Typed" into the address and search bars. I cannot stop it, I have changed keyboards thinking there might be something wrong with the keyboard. No longer blue tooth, now wired. Also just received and intrusion attack from www.gooiglemaps.club/ with the following comment "The attack was resulted from \DEVICE\HARDDISKVOLUME4\PROGRAMFILES\ MOZILLA FIREFOX\FIREFOX.EXE." This popped up in the middle of typing an address for facebook. I am more concerned about the uncontrolled entries of ? and !

Did not mean to say solved, should have added ran full scan for infections, none found.
You can check for recently installed suspicious or unknown extensions.
Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions ("3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
- switch to the DEFAULT theme: "3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Appearance
- do NOT click the "Refresh Firefox" button on the Safe Mode start window
