Firevfox opens normally and displays Homepage ( Google Search ) Gives proper search results. But when I click any link thereafter, it redirectes me to questscan.com. Its also not allowing me to uninstall Firefox and reinstall it. Other browsers Google Chrome and Explorer running properly.

Chosen solution

QuestScan has some relationship with adware like Hotbar, once it’s added to your browser, it keeps redirecting to its own site whenever you try to search your content.

Do you have a QuestScan extension (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions)?

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
