Remove completely snap.do, restart and it still persist

I already did what I need to remove snap.do completely, even in the about:config page about changing back the default value. After restart the computer, everytime I start up Firefox with the last tab I opened, a new tab is open and it is snap.do. But only for the first time, when I closed Firefox and opened it again, it did not show up.

Any help?

Hello mydog2409,

see : questions/950297

and : questions/958900


thank you

Please read the previous support threads about snap.do - you must have missed something which is causing Firefox prefs to be reset.

The problem now is: When I opened Firefox, it opened itself a new tab (plus my old tabs) and show the snap.do search page without a url and only a page. The prefs.js and user.js are clean because it showed no changes from the last time I run the adware remover.

If I start FF with "-p" command, the snap.do does not come back. So what should I do now?

Move stuff to the new profile.

Did you edit the target properties of the browser icon?

It adds the snapdo site to load on run.

Disregard - I see that it stops after the first occurrence.
