User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:25.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/25.0 (Beta/Release) Build ID: 20131028112446 Steps to reproduce: when entering in a url bar address, a bunch of extra stuff is always added to the end, and there is no way to disable this.
There is browser.urlbar.autoFill pref in about:config.
