I recently installed some software to "clean up" my computer. When I did, it totally screwed up my internet. I uninstalled it, but still when I open firefox my homepage will not fully load. I've tried dragging my home page to the house icon, this does not work. I tried having someone troubleshoot, but the problem is I cannot find the firefox settings drop-down menu.
