                        Are you being sent to a .org site?
                        The genius that owns com.org has thousands of subdomains that will take you to their search page if your DNS is timing out. Is this the search page you are seeing? http://foxnews.com.org If not, go with brizzad's call

                                When I do a search from the search function in firefox I get the normal results page.

                                But when I search in the "new" google I get this results page: http://www.google.dk/xhtml?q=gfy&hl=...ng&site=search

                                  Never happened to me before I clicked the link you posted. the google.com/xhtml so its probably a settings problem.

                                          its cos you clicked on a link for the mobile version of google and it set a cookie to remember that. probably you clicked on the same one for the mobile version of google local that got launched today or recently, same thing that happened to me.
