Recently when I opened my Firefox browser a message appeared on my home screen asking me to add a "search and Print recipe app. I did not want to do so but I could not get rid of it. After seeing the icon in Firefox bar in the upper I added it. It uses Yahoo as my search engine and I don't want the app or Yahoo. How do I get rid of it?

Hi Greg

So that I can try and replicate what you are seeing here, what is the address of the webpage where you saw that message?
