Hi friend,you can download Avast free anti-virus (If you are not an advanced user).This program have and very powerful tool to remove malicious tool bars and malware.

I recommend you to first uninstall AVG and then install Avast.Do a boot time scan,when you problem is solved,you can continue with Avast or can reinstall AVG.

Hello Leonnyx,
How are you doing? 
I loaded Avast on my computer and when i open firefox and i click at new tap, i always saw the automatic fake link address in the new tab address bar, but just that it was can reach that stupid page because avast blocked it but i still see that address in the address bar.
This mean that, if i remove avast, the persist will appear again when i click new tab.
Thanks you so much for your concerning

1.Hi friend,open Avast,go to (Tools) > Browser Cleanup,delete all things you find there.

2.Also,you can configure manually Firefox,go to (Options > General),and type in the Home_Page:something like "www.google.com"

3.Change the search provider in the Search Bar of Firefox,for something like Google.

4.Also,go to (Add-Ons > Extensions) and disable all things that look suspicious like "wiki tool bar" or "Safe Search tool-bar" or "Safe Tab"...You got me right?


(Please,copy and paste the bad URL of the tab...Thank you bro...Good Luck.)
