hi, it looks like you have an extension related to that site installed: Disable or remove Add-ons
It’s very sad, but many software downloaders/ installers will trick you into installing not only their program, but other programs as well.
You have heard of the fine print in shady contracts, right? Well, some installers you need to look at the itsy bitsy teeny weeny fine print.
You are thinking you are giving the installer permission to install the program you want by using the recommended option. But if you use the Manual Option Instead, you discover all kinds of stuff that you do not even know what it is or what it does.
From now on, everyone needs to Use The Manual Option to put a stop to this.
Note that these programs can also change browser/computer settings.
Hi !
You'll have to do a little bit more than to just remove that extension and run just one malware scan - more malware may have come along with radiostreambutler.com, which is a browser hijacker.
Go to the 3-bar menu (or 'Tools') => Addons => Extensions and look for any other unfamiliar or suspicious looking extensions,
When you find any : remove them.
Do the same in Windows' Control Panel => Programs.
However : most malware will be 'hiding' somewhere , so let's run malware scans :

Run most or all of the listed malware scanners.
They all work differently - what one program doesn't pick up, the other might.
