Hi  !

That 'newtab.club' is a browser hijacker - would you please do this :

Go to the 3-bar menu (or 'Tools') => Addons => Extensions and look for any unfamiliar or suspicious looking extensions, like e.g. :

SafeSearch Incognito SearchAssist Incognito Search for Fire Fox 1.6 SafeSearch ch SafeSearch net Converter.onesearch org File Convertor and Search Addon Findwide Search Engine 1.7

When you find any : remove them.

Do the same in Windows Control Panel.

However : most malware will be 'hiding' somewhere , so let's run malware scans :

Further information can be found in this article : https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-caused-malware?cache=no

Run most or all of the listed malware scanners. They all work differently - what one program doesn't pick up, the other might.

Separate issue : Your system details show that you need to update your Adobe Flash Player - you are running a very old version, which can cause major problems. Would you please uninstall your current version and install the latest version, which is 27.0.0.187

Uninstaller : https://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/uninstall-flash-player-windows.html

You can download te latest version from here : https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/

Note : some 'extras' may be offered in the download.

Absolutely no need to apologize - it's a lot of work  !

I'm just glad that you've got everything back to normal again.

You have a nice day as well  !  :D
