Someone hacked into my Firefox. When I tried to open it this am it became very small and started floating across the screen. I clicked on it and it opened to a site that said "HackeD By TiGER-M@TE". After closing that site down, Firefox seems to be working fine. Should I be worried though that it was hacked into?

You weren't hacked, that web site was hacked. The web site admin needs to fix his web site.

Your Firefox was not hacked but rather the site you were trying to view.
