I have used Firefox for about 7 years. No issues... I recently installed Ghostery add on.

The only way to describe it is: I go to a page.. Click a link (or close to it) or enter or any other button/link that would take me to what I expect..

BUT instead it opens a new tab to an advertisement site (quibids, P&G, many other random ads) - a few of them I blacklisted with BLOCKSITE (installed after the problem started happening) but several I can't because I would actually use them when I need to (ex: Vistaprint.com)

When I go back to the original site and click the same link and click it again it works as intended. This happens across all sites that I am on... It is like there is a hidden link within the one I am clicking on. I have pop ups blocked in my browser but this gets around it somehow.

Since GHOSTERY installed, some sites do not work correctly. If I click on a picture, or something that I want to expand it is as if I am doing nothing at all because it won't complete the action, the functionality is broken.

I have white listed a couple sites but this is random and if I whitelist everything I come across then it opens me back to what I am trying to avoid..

EXAMPLES:

went on Heat.com, clicked the button to go to the White Hot Gear instead it opened a new tab brandonline.com

was on LinkedIn and hit the comment button on a thread, then it opened a new tab vistaprint.com

was on publix.com, hit the order refills button, then it opened a new tab premium-promos.net

did a google search clicked on the link I wanted, it opened a new tab premiumgiftrewards.net

EACH time I go back to the original site and click the same button/link/etc it takes me where expected.

Thanks in advance for your help!

hello, this sounds like a problem possibly caused by adware on your pc. please go to firefox > addons > extensions & remove any suspicious entries (toolbars, things that you have not installed intentionally, don't know what purpose they serve, etc). also go to the windows control panel / programs and remove all toolbars or potentially unwanted software from there and run a full scan of your system with the security software that you have in place and different other tools like the free version of malwarebytes & adwcleaner.

could you go to firefox > help > troubleshooting information, copy the contents of that page and paste them here into a reply on the forum? maybe this might give us some other clue what is going on...

ok, the downloadterms extension is malicious but already disabled so it shouldn't cause this issue directly any more (if you are able to remove it, please do so nevertheless).

the blocksite addon has gotten some negative reviews recently, so you might also want to disable it.

in addition go to firefox > help > troubleshooting information, click on profile folder/show folder and close all firefox windows afterwards. a windows explorer window should open up - in there delete the file named user.js - it is used to overwrite your preferences and shouldn't exist if you haven't created it manually in the first place.

Both Firefox and IE have the same problem. The cursor instead of being a finger when pointing to a link is still an arrow. However I can click anywhere on the page and an ad will pop up. I have eliminated all unwanted bars in Firefox, I ran Malwarebytes until it came out clean. I also have AVG which had detected a few items on it's own. But when I get into Firefox I still have exactly the same problem. Now it will not let me download Browser Safeguard. Usually after one click the pointer returns to normal for a few screens. When I try to click to download Browser Safeguard it keeps bringing up different ads or it tries to get me to upgrade Firefox or some other browser helper program which I know are all BS tactics to get me to load their junk again. PLease help I'm an engineer and pretty good with PCs but this one has me beat at least so far.
