Browser redirected to get "Critical Update for Adobe Flash"
I typed facebook.com in my firefox browser today and was redirected to a full-page ad demanding that I am "required to get critical adobe flash update." I'm sure it was a scam, but I had to close out my browser to get rid of it. It's only happened once, but still, if there is some malware on my computer, I would like to get rid of it.
Here are my current extensions / add-ons / plugins for firefox:
AdBlock Plus
Saved Password Editor
iTunes Application Detector
Java Deployment Toolkit (which is blocked by firefox. I don't know what it is or why its in my browser)
Java Platform SE 7 U51
Picasa
Shockwave Flash
Shockwave for Director
Silverlight Plug-in
As you can see, I don't even HAVE an ADOBE flash plugin to update (unless that's what shockwave is). Anyway, what's your best advice for cleaning this little bugger out of my computer / browser?
Thanks.
