Remove YouTube Downloader from Firefox
Whenever there is a video to watch on any website I get this "link" superimposed over the controls at the bottom right corner of the window that takes me to a bs website if I click on it : http://keep-tube.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fembed%2FcvjgZWZoeWg%3Fwmode%3Dtransparent%26rel%3D0%26autohide%3D1%26showinfo%3D0
How can I get rid of it? I can show you a screen grab of what it looks like if you tell me how to upload it.

So I tried disabling them one at a time and the culprit an extension called "Page Break 1.0.5 " . Thanks for your help
