Exclamation Very strange browser behaviour (firefox)


Hello
I just noticed a very strange behaviour in my browser (Firefox).
It's probably not the correct forum to put this post in so Admin can feel free to put it somewhere else.

I tried to call a site (actually an invalid domainname so it seems) in Firefox and get linked to my localhost.
I actually have a local LAMP-Sever to work on my website etcetera.
The site I tried to call was/is hmamail.com.
I supposed it to be the domainname of a disposible Email-Inbox but it is not.
I whether have this domain in Apache sites-enabled nor any clue how this can happen.
It's probably a security related affair so I post it here even if I usually try to avoid that.

I someone has an idea how that can happen I'd appreciate any help.
I have no history enabled in my browser.
I exclusively browse 'private'.
