Safe Saver was inadvertently added as an add-on and I am unable to remove it permanently. I remove it via the add-on manager every time I turn on my PC and it reappears the next time I turn the PC back on. How can I be rid of it once and for all?

Seems like malware.

USE ALL THE PROGRAMS BELOW, ALL of them.

Microsoft Security Essentials is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP if you don't already have one.


Further information can be found in the Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware article.

I have a couple of those already loaded and Kaspersky as my default security package. I'll download and install the balance and scan; thank you.
