searchnu.com downloads or piggybacks in on mozilla download, cannot get mozzila to run. update did it
I downloaded update for Mozilla, in its place I get the seachnu.com as my web browser. i tried to manually over ride it, but it hijacks the web browser and is the only one that shows up. i looked it up on web and found that it piggybacks in on downloads, then hides itself while taking over web browser.
i removed mozilla and ran a search for searchnu on computer, but after downloading and removing mozilla several times, it always shows back up when I download latest version of mozilla. I can use google, which I hate and it also removes all my favorites when I have to remove mozilla.
Is there anyway to fix this problem? I have Kasperskey security on computer and its not detecting anything to remove, and since it hides itself, I have no idea what to look for to remove.
It also has slowed my computer web browsing down.
Any suggestions?

The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information. Note: This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.
To Reset Firefox do the following:
- Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
- Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
- Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
- Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
