    Hi
    Can anybody help please . When using Firefox as I normally do when I want to open another by clicking on the plus sign it opens not in Firefox but something called Dounty.com-Browser Security , www.zwiiky.com/hp20.
    I have tried changing this and getting rid of it , So I can use Firefox . But it refuses to go no matter what I do.
    How do I get rid of it ?. I have tried CCleaner and Malwarebytes-AntiMalware . Have used various antivirus programs but it will not go .
    Thanks
