If you are pointing out a bug in the software and do not need support, I think you should should report it here: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/ .

Sorry if I misunderstood your post.

According to your post you have already ran malware scans (good for you  !), but have you also done this :

Go to the 3-bar menu => Addons => Extensions and look for any unfamiliar or suspicious looking extensions, like e.g.:

SafeSearch Incognito SearchAssist Incognito

When you find any :   remove them.

Also look in : 3-bar menu (or 'Tools') => Options => Advanced => Network tab => Under : 'Offline Web Content and User Data'

Do the same in Windows' Control Panel => Programs.

However :   most malware will be 'hiding' somewhere , so let's run (some more) malware scans :

Further information can be found in this article :

Run most or all of the listed malware scanners.
They all work differently   -   what one program doesn't pick up, the other might.

If, however, you've already done all of the above, you can of course ignore this post.
