After uninstalling HandyCafe software, it's start-up page http://search.handycafe.com/ still remains active in Firefox.
No matter what you change your start-up page to, next run of Firefox changes back to http://search.handycafe.com/
No related software found in Control Panel - Programs
No related plug-ins are installed in Firefox.
No related executables are found in Windows start-up
How do I remove it? =)

Since the first answer wasn't what you were looking for, I did a simple Internet search which found this on the Mozilla Support Forum.

This appears to be a well know issue on several sites. Here is a page with some fairly detailed instructions how to remove the software and the browser redirecting vulnerability.

I'm a Firefox user since several years so I know it but today I had a strange problem. I installed the last stable version of Firefox (3.5.5) on a computer but when I launch the browser the page stay empty (blank).
In the settings I set the startpage as Google but nothing to do. When the browser starts in the address bar it is well written google.com but the page remains blank. I must click on the button in the address bar so that the site appears.
I've never had this problem with Firefox, it's strange. Thanks

Are you running 64-bit windows 7? I had the same problem on Google Chrome with an early build of Windows 7 64-Bit.
