Firefox used to block images on websites, I can't figure how to set that up now. Is this still possible? I am tired of my sons being bombarded with advertisements with inappropriate images. Please help me fix this. I switched from Chrome because I was told this was possible on Firefox. If it's not I have no need to switch. Thanks

This did not solve my problem. It was already set to "1" block all images. And images still show. Any other suggestions?

Do a malware check with several malware scanning programs on the Windows computer.
Please scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.
All these programs have free versions.

Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.

You can also do a check for a rootkit infection with TDSSKiller.
