I tried to download a game recently but that has given me a lot of grief. Now every time a tab pops up even when the internet is off. The address is laserveradedomaina.com/redirect/57a764d042bf8. It pops up every time. Can anyone assist? I'd be grateful

Hi,

That game you downloaded apparantly came with a 'bonus' : malware.

Go to the Firefox menu (≡) => Add-ons => Extensions, and look for any unfamiliar or suspicious looking extensions.

When you find any : remove them.

Do the same in Windows Control Panel.

However : most malware will be 'hiding' somewhere , so let's run malware scans (even though you already have run some) :

Further information can be found in this article : https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-caused-malware?cache=no

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