why does firefox open after i uninstalled it and installed google chrome
i uninstalled firefox, then installed google chrome. often i will be on chrome and firefox opens a window with porn sites and multiple tabs. how is this possible after being uninstalled. and this only happens on my girlfriends desktop. On mine i dont get anything like that.

First of all you need to run some malware scans, it sounds like the computer has been infected. Try running several malware scanners, you can use any of the following:
- Malwarebytes
- SUPERAntiSpyware
- Lavasoft Ad-Aware
- Windows Defender (If you use Microsoft Security Essentials then you will not need to use Windows Defender)
As for Firefox appearing, that implies it has not been uninstalled. The uninstalling Firefox article shows how to manually remove Firefox if the uninstaller failed.
