Evidently a banner "Theme missing? Click "Theme Help" at: www.personasInteractive.com" rode into my Firefox settings on the back of a site I visited. I think it happened when I made the mistake of downloading a video helper attempting to resolve an issue with YouTube video errors. I uninstalled that application and is still appears as VisualBee. Perhaps that is the malware that I thought I uninstalled.

Thank you for your consideration.

Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.

You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:

Microsoft Security Essentials is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP if you don't already have one.


Further information can be found in the Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware article.
