Why is Firefox now randomly redirecting me to a marketing page?

I've noticed that in the last month or less, when I click on a link within a website, I'm randomly redirected to a marketing page. Unless I have a virus or adware on my iMac, I'm confused why they would have done this to their clients?

I also just noticed in the box below my question, it says I have a plug-in I don't recognize. Maybe it's the problem?

Thanks!

You have an add-on called "MasterQuizzes Advertisements 1.8" which seems like something very suspicious. Can you please delete it and let me know if you still get random ads?

Also try uninstalling "Safe Browsing 0.1.1".

After doing that, download Malwarebytes from www.malwarebytes.com.

Finally, there is a critical security update for Firefox, please update to Firefox 67.0.4
