I have very few add-ons and almost all of them are flash/programming languages etc.

It dealt with an add-on. After it was disabled, the problem was solved.

Thanks again!

Know also that to date every blogger who has reported this on the support forums has had a browser-add-on or browser extension, game, toolbar or shopping app that was the cause of the unwanted adware.

There is a large red x at the right, but when I click it to close this ad, nothing happens and it prevents me from accessing the admin bar at the top.

Is this from you guys or something else with my firefox browser? It is becoming rather annoying and I haven't clicked the link for fear of some virus.
