Hello Guys,

I am having a bit of trouble here. First I have tabs that are popping up and they are ads or just a black screen. Some of the pop ups are on the page that I am looking at. How do I get them to stop? Also in my Firefox search bar it has changed from google to microsoft search engine but when I hit the search arrow it has a box that says- a browser seach and then goes to microsoft bing. Can you help me figure out how to get my mozilla back to normal. I love using this and dont want to let it go. Its the best browser ever!!!

You can do a malware scan just to be sure.

You can look on the Add-ons website for a suitable content blocking extension.
