When opening a new tab in Firefox it always opens to a blocked site and I can not change this.

I was able to set the home site when opening Firefox (I have the google site on opening). But when I click on a new tab (the X next to the current one) it always takes me to this website: http://search.dsearchm3f2.com/?uc=20180319&ad=appfocus49&source=GoogleDisplay-bb9&uid=84f66b56-d698-435f-bb24-1e031c6ddd3b&i_id=forms_100.7&page=newtab&

And when it opens to this site there is the "harmful site" which is blocked. How do I just get ride of Firefox always taking me to this site?

hi, you appear to have lods of adware extensions installed in your firefox profile:

  1. please 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) - probably all of then excapt f-secure.
  2. also go to the windows control panel / programs and remove all toolbars or potentially unwanted software from there.
  3. 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.
