I need to kill off "Coupons Browser Update" (uninstall) - I see others with the same question but no corrective proceedures.

Many have asked and my search show that FF has NOT replied with how to kill (uninstall) "Coupons Browser Update". It annoying - how did FF ever let this SH*T get on FF in the first place. I have tracked down the authors website through their disclaimer and the darn thing just would go away or even stop.

Some posting have been up for a long time with no answer/reply. Just entering "Coupons Browser Update" should take one directly to a cure.

I beat it. This was kind of a broad shoot but here is what I did: Uninstalled and reinstalled FF. No result. Went to "Tools" ->"Addons" ->"Extensions". Uninstalled or removed if available as an option all the extensions. No more Coupon Browser Update. It was coming from one of the Extensions.

I suppose you could turn them on again one by one to see which one is doing it but I just carried on.

You have to kill it in two places. FF must be generating revenue from this.

Goto Add-ons

1) Click on the Plug Ins tab. 

   Disable both "Coupon Inc" addons.  For some reason I had two.

2) Click on the Extensions tab 

   Disable the "Start Now toolbar"

What a pain.
