When using Firefox, there are add-ons on pages. The words say "Items you may like to read:" and then has pictures. It doesn't show up when I use Safari.
When I visit some websites, at the bottom of the page there will be a section that says: "You might enjoy reading:" Under that there are pictures and summaries about the pictures. This only shows up on my computer, when using firefox. It doesn't show up when I use Safari. It also doesn't show up when another teacher opens the same website and page using firefox. How do I get rid of it?

Clear the cache and cookies only from websites that cause problems.
"Clear the Cache":
- Firefox > Preferences > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
"Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
- Firefox > Preferences > Privacy > "Use custom settings for history" > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
- Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.
