Something is opening a new tab every few seconds, with different sites wanting me to download things that I don't want. I can't find a means to stop this.

I'm presently using Google Chrome to access your website. I can turn my back, with Firefox running, and a half a dozen or more new tabs will be opening.

hello, you may have various malicious addons present. 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.
