I was looking at mediahint.com's website - though I didn't download anything. Now, it has taken over my browser. It redirects any URL I input to mediahint.com, and any link I click on via a search engine it also redirects to their page with a message saying "This is somewhat embarrassing, isn’t it? Sorry, it looks like nothing was found at this page URL. Please try using the search box or choose a help center topic."

I can't escape this horrible thing! It is not listed as an add-on/plug in for me to remove, so that's not an option. I also tried to reset the browser to default settings, which also did not work.

You may have ad / mal-ware. Further information can be found in the Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware article.

Run most or all of the listed malware scanners. Each works differently. If one program misses something, another may pick it up.
