7769 domain.com
Since upgrading Firefox and including the favourite addons (noscript,flags, add block plus), I have these blank pages appearing with the URL leading to 'd.7769domain.com'. They appear randomly when browsing. I ran my Norton360 and found no virus. I have found information of this on other sites, but no mention on the regular warning forums. So is this a scam to get me to download a program suppose to be able to remove this. If this is a problem, how can I remove it? I have completely removed FF36 and install FF37 with the above addons and again it comes back to haunt me. So far no-script seems to prevent it from accessing the URL, but it is annoying when these pages pop up.
Anyone else come across this?

You can check for recently installed suspicious or unknown extensions.

Do a malware check with several malware scanning programs on the Windows computer. Please scan with all programs because each program detects different malware. All these programs have free versions.
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.
