how can I delete a line from important modified preferences?
Whenever i open a new tab browser.newtab.url http://www.trovi.com/?gd=&ctid=CT3319709&octid=EB_ORIGINAL_CTID&ISID=M05359C95-E90E-459D-8139-12649223 is what populates it. I found that it resides in the location above. Is there a way to access that file and delete it?
Thanks, David

browser.newtab.url is a pref located in the internal page about:config. There could be more things that are affected by Trovi.
- Go to about:config via the Address Bar (Ctrl + L)
- Press the button saying you'll be careful
- Search for Trovi then reset all prefs that pull up (right click > Reset)
A few more things to do:
Remove any programs that you don't recognize or remember installing from your Control Panel (Start > Control Panel > Uninstall a Program)
Remove any extensions that you don't recognize or remember installing from Firefox.
- Firefox 29 and above:(Press the menu button (The image "new fx menu" does not exist. > Add-ons > Extensions)
- Firefox 28 and below:(Go to the orange Firefox button > Add-ons > Extensions)
