I want to get rid of "Search Encrypt"
I've been on the phone with Apple support for hours to get rid of this search encrypt and we have not succeeded. We delete it and delete it and it just keeps coming back. We ran malware several times and it doesn't catch it. Then we deleted Firefox and re-installed Firefox, and that didn't get rid of it either.
Can you help me get rid of search encrypt?

Did you find the SearchEncrypt extension in the Firefox extension manager?

You can create a new profile to test if your current profile is causing the problem.
See "Creating a profile":

If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over problems.
Type about:addons<enter> in the address bar to open your Add-ons Manager. Hot key; (<Control> [Mac=<Command>] <Shift> A)
