Sure sounds like Malware, but http://yourtv.link/ doesn't come up in a search for "malware" or "remove" with regards to http://yourtv.link/ .

See if anything here helps you. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-caused-malware

First do the mal-ware scans. After the issue is fixed, use these;

Bookmark and use this; Mozilla Search Reset {web link} This add-on is very simple: on installation, it backs up and then resets your search preferences and home page to their default values, and then uninstalls itself. This affects the search bar, URL bar searches, and the home page.

Settings Guard for Firefox {web link} Detects and resets changes to settings that are frequently done by add-ons and application installers.
