Hello,
Thank you for posting. This is not really a question about Firefox, but it sounds like you are suffering from malware. You can try removing the problem with built-in Windows security.
You can find it by typing Windows Security in the start menu and running it. You can then start a virus scan from there.
If that fails, I would recommend getting help with reinstalling Windows on your computer.
I am very sorry that you have to deal with this.
There are also other tips and links to free scan tools in this article for removing malware:
