I am attempting to remove iLivid from my computer. It has hijacked my browser. I removed it from IE and Chrome; however, I am unable to remove it from Firefox because it will not launch. How can I remove this "thing" from Firefox if it will not launch???? I used the shortcut on the taskbar, the icon on my desk top and also the navigation menu. None will launch Firefox.

hello, can you get firefox to start by pressing the shift key while it is launching in order to bring it up in safemode?

Unfortunately it still did not launch.

Clicking on the icon in the taskbar results in a circle which implies it is thinking or starting to open. It goes away. No dialog box opens. That's it.
