Hi

It may be the case that you have picked up some inadvertent advertising that is following you.

I recommend you turn on Tracking Protection which should reduce the tracking that you are seeing. You can read more about this here.

You may also want to clear out your internet history. You can read more about this here.

I hope that helps, but if not, please come back here and we can look into a different solution for you.

You may have ad / mal-ware. Further information can be found in the Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware article.

Run most or all of the listed malware scanners. Each works differently. If one program misses something, another may pick it up.

Do a malware check with several malware scanning programs on the Windows computer.

Please scan with all programs because each program detects different malware. All these programs have free versions.

Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.

You can also do a check for a rootkit infection with TDSSKiller.
