    Sounds like a piece of malware according to some Googling. Check firefox for any add-ons installed that may be related, then go through your usual tools for scanning shit.
    (MalwareBytes Anti-Malware might do the trick in this case)

    Sounds like a classic browser hijack. There's a great sticky in the tech forum which covers how to kill most malware, read it and come back here if you still need help http://www.bluegartr.com/threads/782...s-and-Malware?. Also, you might want to edit out that link in your post so others don't accidentally go there and get themselves infected.
