After I close Firefox down I often return to my computer to find it back open usually with an ad of some sort for spyware removal, or malware. I have run avg numerous times but it has not detected any viruses. I have also disabled many addons from firefox. One time I closed firefox came back and some super mario bros webpage was playing.

hello warpigdave, please also run a scan with different other tools specialised in adware and browser hijackers, like the free version of malwarebytes and adwcleaner.
