I have deleted the file in my downloads folder. I searched in the start button pop up for the name and deleted it from there also. I have searched online but found nothing relating to this. Does anyone know how to get rid of it. I'm hesitant to uninstall and reinstall the browser...

Note that the SearchReset extension only runs once and then uninstalls automatically, so it won't show on the "Firefox > Add-ons" page (about:addons).
If you do not keep changes after a restart then see:
