It is a adware/malware disguised as something good.
Please go to the firefox menu ≡ > addons > extensions & remove any suspicious entries (toolbars, things that you have not installed intentionally, don't know what purpose they serve, etc). Remove CouponXplorer Toolbar from Mac OS X system : If you are using OS X, click Go button at the top left of the screen and select Applications. Wait until you see Applications folder and look for CouponXplorer Toolbar or any other suspicious programs on it. Or go to the where add remove/programs on a Mac and remove all toolbars or potentially unwanted software from there. finally, run a full scan of your system with different security tools.
