A tab in Firefox keeps automatically opening to this URL. I'm not sure what to do. http://soft67.co/?dist_id=269&channel=acmnj&cid=8423259501411904955&pubid=307
I use the current version of Firefox for Windows. I've reset Firefox and done multiple virus scans of my computer.

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 Safety Scanner
- MalwareBytes' Anti-Malware
- Anti-Rootkit Utility - TDSSKiller
- AdwCleaner (for more info, see this alternate AdwCleaner download page)
- Hitman Pro
- ESET Online Scanner
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.
