There is this mean mainland china website that pretends to be my home page, and I cant get rid off it. Everytime I open my firefox, it leads me to it directly. I had tried to clear my history and the cookies from this website. I even change my home page back to the original firefox page, but if I open my browser, the mean website will still take over first. Then if I click home page botton, I can go to my original firefox page. This is really pissing my off, Can someone please help me out???

Do a malware check with a few malware scan programs. You need to use all programs because each detects different malware.
