I'm not sure, but I've noticed the same thing in Outlook. I also downgraded,
but then Firefox updated itself again this morning. Installing the ESR
version overtop of 57 seems to keep things working fine, though I haven't
tested the URL problem yet.
The ESR version can be found here:

Cheers,

Firefox updated automatically for me, so I downgraded as well. Firefox is
working fine, except now I can't open links in outlook or word. Will
switching to ESR solve this? Or did I just royally screw something up?
