Disable everything that you dont recognize.

Answer 2

I never faced any problems with Firefox like this !!!

Still, the ultimate solution to your question is that you uninstall firefox temporarily.

But the problem is when you uninstall programs, they don't remove all the registry entries, shortcuts and program files; and some ofthe uninstallations don't complete at all !!!

In that case, you will need a third party software for that porpose.

Try Smarty Uninstaller 2008 and uninstall any program you wish to without leaving a piece of c**p of the software.

Sure that helps !!!

Answer 3

delete all the files and folders from firefox.exe

Answer 4

I would run a virus scan, because as far as I know firefox shouldn't come back up after you end the process, unless you start it again.
