I think that google has somehow hacked on my computer. My homepage is google ASK. When I try to go onto Firefox it diverts back to google ask. When I tried to make comcast.net email my homepage it wouldnt let me.

Try start Firefox in safe mode sometimes this problems can be caused by addons:

If you do not keep changes after a restart or otherwise have problems with preferences, see:

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
