That looks really sketchy.  A quick Google indicates this domain is
associated with a browser hijacker that is sometimes bundled with free
software, so either you've been the victim of a drive-by attack or
have installed some free tool that has installed it.  I'd start by
looking at what you have installed that isn't from the official Fedora
repo.

To reset Firefox's home page, "Options", "Preferences", select the
"General" tab, the click "Restore to Default" in the Homepage section.
Alternatively, to reset all Firefox defaults, click on the 3-bar icon
in the top right, select, "Help", "Troubleshooting Infomation", and
finally "Refresh Firefox".
