I raved about how easy good and safe Firefox was to a friend, setup her NEW untouched pc and the first thing I did was download Firefox and also got this pos binkiland. No other place it could have come from but the Firefox download. Are you guys addressing this issue? How about a fix that's as easy to remove it as it was to contract this ITD (Internet transmitted disease). I'm probably going to have to unplug the new pic and take it somewhere to a pro to clean a new pc two days old. Please respond promptly.

Past and hopefully future fan of your product.

Just because you see it in Firefox does not automatically mean it must have come with Firefox. Especially if you got it from mozilla.org and not a download site. Firefox any version for any os from mozilla.org does not come with this.
