I somehow clicked on the wrong thing while trying to download a free printable calendar, and ended up with the following when I try to open my Firefox: Sponsored Search By QuickForms. I don't want that! At all! I want to delete that, and have the Firefox window open then way it used to be when I clicked on the Firefox icon. Help!!!

Hello mijordan,thanks for asking to support You asked that when you open firefox,a Sponsored,Third Party WebPage opens,now you need to know why this happens.Sometimes many websites changes your firefox Default homepage,you can Go back to default by Settings>Home>and then Change Homapages and Windows and also New tabs to Firefox default.Then it will fix your problem

It’s very sad, but many software downloaders/ installers will trick you into installing not only their program, but other programs as well.

You have heard of the fine print in shady contracts, right? Well, some installers you need to look at the itsy bitsy teeny weeny fine print.

You are thinking you are giving the installer permission to install the program you want by using the recommended option. But if you use the Manual Option Instead, you discover all kinds of stuff that you do not even know what it is or what it does.

From now on, everyone needs to Use The Manual Option to put a stop to this.

Note that these programs can also change browser/computer settings.
