I believe my Firefox has been hijacked

[firefoxuse]

Hello!
I installed a horrible software called JDownloader2.
It changed my search engine and homepage to Bing.com without asking me.
I guess it did more harm to my system.
How can I fix that?

Please see here something strange that happens:

When I load google results, after 1 second, some strange links appear!

Those idiots do not reply.
I noticed that my firefox client has changed to client=firefox-b-ab

How can I fix that?

you do better with uninstalling firefox instead bothering and insulting helpful persons.

Oh, you are so right, I didn't know I should thank ''helpful' people who were kind enough to infect me with malware, you are a brilliant chap indeed.
Maybe my email to Polizei and Europol will be more 'helpful'.

@RobertJ - he is long enough member here how to resolve firefox failure, including malware search and removal, eg with mbam or adwcleaner.

none of "idiots" is guilty for his native view of the things and JD is not a holy cow.

Maybe my email to Polizei and Europol will be more 'helpful'.

everyone is responsible for his/her action, also this one.

I am sure I will make your day when they knock your door
You are very idiotic to believe that EU do not take malicious software seriously.
