how do i remove "maps galaxy by myway" from the mozilla homepage
I thought I was downloading a google gps mapping tool. However the Mozilla homepage showed "maps galaxy" as the only maping choice, so I clicked on it. Myway has taken over my firefox homepage and I can't get rid of it. I have uninstalled and reinstalled firefox several times from what looks like the Mozilla homepage. Nothing works, now what?

hello myurcon, this sounds like a problem caused by adware on your pc. so please perform all those steps:
- go to the firefox menu ≡ > addons > extensions & remove any suspicious entries (toolbars, things that you have not installed intentionally, don't know what purpose they serve, etc).
- also go to the windows control panel / programs and remove all toolbars or potentially unwanted software from there.
- finally, run a full scan of your system with different security tools like the free version of malwarebytes & adwcleaner, which are specialised in adware and browser hijackers.
