I accidentally installed a program that hijacks Firefox home page and adds keep popping up all over the placed. The only way I can get rid of it is to exit firefox. I tried to uninstall it but the uninstall program freezes up so I have to reboot. Has anyone else had a similar experience? Can anyone help me? Thank You.

What is the URL of the hijacked page? Anything else you can provide to help us identify what you picked up? Any new add-ons installed?
