cannot find esnips anywhere on my machine I would really prefer some OTHER WAY TO CONTACT YOU rather than posting something to the ether, the answer for which I may never see or even know exists. WHY DON'T YOU HAVE TELEPHONE NUMBERS OR EMAIL ADDRESSESS??????

As I thought. There is no support. "Contact" only provides an address; no phone, no email. And you don't pay any attention to this "forum". You're just hoping users will answer other users' questions.

Try to reset some preferences to the default with the SearchReset extension:

Note that the SearchReset extension only runs once and then uninstalls automatically, so it won't show on the "Firefox > Add-ons" page (about:addons).

If you do not keep changes after a restart then see:

Thanks, but answers that begin with the word "try", in my experience, are usually just vague guesses.

I found the solution on my own...

Rip out everything Firefox and Mozilla from your computer, including in both Library folders. Throw it all in the trash and empty the trash.

Then download and install a fresh copy of Firefox.

Next time, I will simply rip everything out and LEAVE it out, because this esnips crap is a longstanding MAJOR invasion, mozilla knows it, and they do NOTHING about it. WORSE, it is not possible to contact mozilla in any way. Obviously, they DO NOT CARE!! Otherwise any attempt by esnips to sneak their crap onto a computer would be spotted and INTERRUPTED by Firefox, which obviously, is not the case.

Esnips turns FIrefox into useless crap software. I recommend Googlechrome.

And why on Earth is Mozilla not suing the people who force this esnips junk on their users? Esnips is USING Firefox to sneak into Firefox cusomters' computers and take a big dump in their machines.
