Firefox keeps opening tabs? - G-Dragon - 04-08-2014 04:08 AM

Every so often a new tab will open saying that my browser is out of date. I know that my browser is up to date and the website that keeps opening up isn't from Mozilla's website.
This is the site that keeps opening up http://www.lpcloudsvr302.com/7E542F675A212F44336E2138743E5D2E2A593C1F5DF8644217B31D479ED513E7B12D1425BC24D326​65FDA0B6A6D36C6A?PubID=144&tgu_src_lp_domain=www.dlultimatesoft.com&tid=nym1CJH12668gpvGPRACGOiR_NKsr5ajGiIOMTA4LjE5My41Mi4yMDkoATC636mXBQ..&pid=144&ClickID=1824601297a6fbeee5b11391095742&sid=1824601297a6fbeee5b11391095742

Is this a virus? I already scanned my laptop for viruses and I shouldn't have any. I uninstalled firefox and reinstalled it and I still have this problem. please help.

Hello Brother,

Did you install any unwanted plugin recently? Check out all the installed plug ins and if there's anything suspicious, uninstall it. Or you can also uninstall the whole browser and do a fresh installation afterwards.

Yup, some sort of Malware is causing that...Firefox does not open a new tab when an update is available. Scan your compute with Malwarebytes or something similar.
