Hello, I have a problem with the add-on "SaveFrom.net Helper". I tried many different possibilities to delete this. When I am in the browser firefox, it´s able to delete. By a new start it's always again in my readsign.

Kind regard Edmund

Hi Edmund, This looks like malicious software (malware) has been installed on your computer.

Could you try the solutions in the following article and see if any of them help: https://malware-guide.com/blog/remove-savefrom-net-helper-quick-removal-tricks

If you need other articles, I found quite a few pertaining to removing SaveFrom.net Helper: https://www.myantispyware.com/2017/08/29/how-to-remove-savefrom-net-helper-removal-guide/ https://geeksadvice.com/remove-savefrom-net-virus/ https://www.2-spyware.com/remove-savefrom-net-helper.html https://www.pcrisk.com/removal-guides/14858-savefrom-net-virus

With all of those search results, I'm willing to bet that you have malware installed. Mozilla has a guide on how to troubleshoot malware issues in Firefox: Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware

If you need further help, let is know.
