I am getting pop-ups, and web pages are opening with "special offers." My yahoo mail has advertising covering the mail messages. This is new. What do I do?

Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.

SCAN WITH ALL PROGRAMS.

Microsoft Security Essentials is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP if you don't already have one.


Further information can be found in the Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware article.
