My Firefox browser has changed to StartNow, Is this a legitimate product from Mozilla? How do I get rid of it?

Startnow is not associated or affiliated with Mozilla or firefox in anyway. Reset Firefox to get rid of it: Refresh Firefox - reset add-ons and settings

You can uninstall this extension: StartNow Toolbar 2.5.0

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

  • Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.
