[QUOTE="Matze M, post: 712142, member: 70150"] Hello there, For a few days my mozilla firefox browser has been hijacked by malware. Sometimes when i try to google something in the search/URL bar of the browser, i get redirected to search.yahoo. Also when i open google.com a small bar appears on the top of the website. This seems to be part of the website and not a tollbar in the browser. The third problem is that i get random pop ups when i click on any websites. I have tried the obvious things first: Firefox settings, delete extensions, check for any programs installed. I also run a couple of malwarefixers. I believe they are called adwcleaner, UnHackMe and hitmanpro. My antivirus check with 360 Total security didnt find anything as well. I can't remember installing any programs on my system only the extension uBlock origin which is offered by mozilla i think, also this was a few days before the first problems occured... I dont know what to do any more. You are my last hope. Win 10 64bit latest updates installed Firefox version 58.0.2 Thanks in advance and sorry for my english Matt I cant edit the post because it contains inappropriate elements. So ill post the screenshots here I just installed malwarebytes version 3.3.1 and scanned with this program but it didnt change anything as well. [/QUOTE]
