I installed Adobe flash player and now AOL has Hijacked my Mozilla Firefox browser. When I click anywhere on the page, it just "dings". It wants me to check the box to change my home page, but I will not do that.

You don't seem to understand. Please read my question. I cannot use anything in FireFox until I accept the demand of the AOL dialog:

WARNING - BROWSER SETTINGS Another program (that would be me using Google to restore my original settings) has changed your homepage and search settings( from the unwanted AOL hijack). Would you like to keep (HAH) your previous settings (i.e. the hijack - NO!) KEEP AOL.COM AND AOL SEARCH (option box) ENABLE AOL HOMEPAGE PROTECTION

There are no other options, no opt-out, and I cannot use Firefox until I allow this hijack. IIf I try to click any FireFox function, it just dings - I can't even close the window, have to do it thru Task Manager. I am writing to you thru Chrome now because I cannot use Firefox.

Download ADWCleaner , within 5 seconds of loading the page, a box should appear automatically, click save and run the file no matter what browser you are using. Scan with this and AOL be gone.
