babylon might also install some unwanted stuff that comes under the names "Browser Manager", "Browser Protector", "Bprotector", "Object Installer", etc. please have a look for them in the windows control panel > programs section and in firefox/tools > addons > extensions and remove all untrusted entries.

afterwards install the search reset addon - it will revert the most common customziations those adware programs do in firefox back to the default: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/
