This is very irritating to get ads everytime I start firefox... This happens on two computers and dissaperes when I unistall this addon.

Ive done malware/virus and that kind of seraches with several program and none found anything.

Why is this happening?
Ive used this addon before and really liked it.

Do you have any "toolbars" installed?

As a test, create a new, clean Profile.
Install NoScript.
Does the same happen?

Well I reinstalled firefox and it seems to be fine now.
Dunno what happened. Dont have any toolbars installed. I also had noscript installed before firefox was update to beta7 with no problems but had to reinstall it after the update and then I got the problems.

Thanks for help.
