Day or two ago, I downloaded a computer game add-on from a reputable guy on a reputable fan site for my favourite computer game. The guy was clearly legit, knew everybody, had spent massive time creating his add-on, etc. But weirdly, he had this elaborate, unfamiliar download procedure which involved a .exe program.
Because the guy was legit, I d/l-ed his stuff and it was brilliant in the game. But the d/l wrecked my Firefox program. First, I had to re-set both my IE and Firefox homepages from a bogus search engine bullshit site that had defaulted as my "new" home page. That was annoying, but easily done.
That seems to have solved the IE problem. But Firefox is still plagued with a half-dozen trashy link-ads for Asian brides, computer games and cheap shoes on almost every page, inlcuding Twitter, Instagram, TERB and pretty much everything else, apart from FB and Google.
Not fatal, but hellishly annoying.
Does anyone know what this horseshit is and how to get rid of it?
