Chosen solution

Step 1: Use search function for "Download Youtube " and Savetubevideo" files. Delete all those file and shortcuts.

Step 2: Go to C:\Program Files. At "Download Youtube Free", right click on mouse and go to 'Properties' and uncheck 'Read Only'. Check yes to change all inside folders and files. Delete ALL the files in there. There will be one ***.dll file cannot be deleted. Rename the particular file to "111.xxx"

Step 3: Backup bookmarks from Firefox and uninstall Firefox on Control Panel.

Step 4: Go back to C:\Program Files and delete folder "Download Youtube Free"

Step 5: Go to C:\WINDOWS\Prefetch and delete any filename with "Download Youtube Free" or similar name to that.

Step 6: Reinstall Firefox. Import the back-up bookmarks.

I hope this helps.
