I went to search a package for ups and clicked the wrong website and came up with "packagesear.h" that has now attached itself to my Firefox browser and automatically comes up and I can't find it to get rid of it. I've actually uninstalled Firefox several times, but the problem remains. And I've run malware searches and can't find it. At least for now, I'm using google chrome until I can figure out how to find and rid myself of this packagesear.h.com that has attached itself. Has anyone else had this problem and how did you find and kill it?

What's your computer system and Firefox version?

In what way is it attached to your browser? Home page? Redirects? Searches?

A web search showed nothing for "packagesear.h"

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