BabylonSearch is occasionally uploading fake firefox browsing/search screens on my PC - I thought you should know that they are attempting to clone you.

I am concerned that they are doing this to other customers as well - who may be more casual about typing in a search query. Perhaps, BabylonSearch is attempting to track some of your clients. The screen looks exactly like the genuine firefox one - including your logo in the center of the screen - except for the inclusion of a tiny and inconspicuous Babylon logo in the lower left hand corner. I recall that I may have read an article on the BabylonSearch site many years ago. I haven't revisited since.
