I download Mozilla browser to enable private browsing but a hacker is able to access my Mozilla browser and disable the private browsing option. The conversion happens while I am browsing, usually within the first 2 minutes of my online activity. So, I uninstalled Mozilla from the Control Panel and re-installed but then the hacker launched a 'delete' Mozilla action so I had no Mozilla browser. I searched my computer for all Mozilla and deleted all files and then did fresh download which worked but then I lost private browsing option again. Vicious cycle. Can you help???
