I got Adf.ly Skipper, but firefox still starts with windows and instead ot adf.ly it loads google.fr. Tried everything - reset firefox, scan for viruses, even backup my computer. I never make mozilla start with windows or install adf.ly or anything... What else can I do? Help!

If you change your default browser to Internet Explorer, does the page open in IE the next time? That would be the common pattern for externally generated pages, that they are targeted to the default browser.

Microsoft has a utility named autoruns you can use to see what is set to run at startup (logon): https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/s.../bb963902.aspx. Hopefully that will help in tracking it down.

No, it didn`t open if I set another browser default. So I started the autorun you gave me and deleted everything containing "firefox". Restarted and the problem is solved! Thank you Very much!
