every time I open firefox after about 2 minutes a new window pops up with 2 tabs, one saying problem loading page, the other shows a list of program files, thier size and when the were last modified. When I close it, it pops back up again in a few minutes.

If you get a program called malware bytes it blocks that window from popping up. Hope that helps :)
