In addition to the actual web page content, I always see unwanted content is displayed. Every page is intervened and at number of places on a web page the unwanted content is inserted. How to prevent this?

hello, maybe you have adware present on your computer. please try these steps:

  1. reset firefox (this will keep your bookmarks and passwords)
  2. afterwards go to firefox > addons > extensions and in case there are still extensions listed there, disable them.
  3. finally run a full scan of your system with different security tools like the free version of malwarebytes and adwcleaner to make sure that adware isn't present in other places of your system as well.
