I got a message I thought was from Mozilla Firefox saying I have to update Adobe Flash Player. I did and ended up with Astromenda.

I went to control panel/programs and Features, found Astromenda, and uninstalled it. I then adjusted my options for my Firefox homepage and got rid of Astromenda on the open of Firefox. However, if I hit the "+" on the tab for a new tab I get a Astromenda search tab. I went to "searchplugins" in the Firefox profile and found Astromenda.xml and replaced with safesearch.xml. Didn't help, Astromenda is still there when I add a new tab.

I go to the web and found websites on how to get rid of Astromenda but they want me to download various adware cleanup tools but I am reluctant to download anything at this point unless it is sanctioned by Mozilla Firefox.

Thank you

The one final step I did not do was the easiest, open Firefox menu, select "Add-ons", click on "Extensions", find "Astromenda", and then click on "Remove."

Problem solved.

PS: I read other blogs that claimed after remove all traces of Astromenda there regular search engine did not act the same... no such problem for me, Google search is acting completely normal.

Thanks everyone for your interest.
