Hi   !

Looks like you've got infected with malware, which of course you'll want to get rid of. Go to the 3-bar menu => Addons => Extensions and look for any unfamiliar or suspicious looking extensions. 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 malware scans :

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