Everytime I click on a page, another page opens, called double-lick and then ads appear, it has only started happening when I updated firefox
I have uninstalled firefox and reinstalled but it is still happening

Do a malware check with some malware scanning programs on the Windows computer.
You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.

You can also do a check for a rootkit infection with TDSSKiller.
