A Problem with Firefox Quantum

["Stephen P. Molnar" <s.molnar@sbcglobal.net>]

I am running Debian Stretch on my Linux platform and have a rather 
annoying problem.

I have upgraded Firefox to Firefox Quantum, currently v-59.0.2 
(64-bit).  Unasked for by me every time that I run a search I get 6 
search recommendations.

Google has come up with how to remove the pocket, how to remove search 
engines, how to remove . . . . but the 'Search Recommendations' persist.

Has anyone figured out how to get rid of the blasted thing?  No, I 
really don't want to switch browsers.

Thanks in advance.
