At some point of my Internet Browsing, Mozilla will without any warning redirect to sites that are containing Malware virus. At the beggining it wouldn't bother me, however nowadays it's nearly imbossible to use Mozilla without redirecting me to those harmful web-sites. It would be very nice of you if you could help me resolve this problem.

Mozilla version: 59.0.2

Sincerly,

Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.

You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:

Microsoft Security Essentials is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista if you don't already have one. Windows 8/10 have antivirus protection built-in.

Further information can be found in the Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware article.
