Stop, firefox does not come with ads, probably arrived to cause you to install malicious software.
You can try these free programs to search for malicious software that work with your existing anti-virus software:- Microsoft safety scanner
- MalwareBytes' Anti-Malware
- TDSSKiller - AntiRootkit utility
- Hitman Pro
- ESET Online Scanner
Microsoft Security Essentials is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP, if you do not already have one.
More information can be found in the article troubleshooting Firefox problems caused by malware .

8.1 upgrade of Windows 8 Windows - how to find and remove the incomplete installation file
I went to the Windows 8 8.1 Windows installation option. While it has been downloaded the file, I turned off by computer error. The file I have is not complete. I would like to delete this file and try again. How/where can I find this file to delete? When I try to access the Windows store to download the file again, it starts the installation process (which assumes that the file I have is over). I think that in the Manager of tasks in desktop view, that I managed to stop the process.
Download uses a technology called BITS (Background Intelligent Transfer Service), as well as the missing pieces of the file will be downloaded when they are required. So just let it run, it will take care of itself.

How can I delete my documents and get rid of my thinkpad with windows 95?
If there is anything physically wrong with your computer, you can use Darik Boot and Nuke (DBAN aka) to make a scrub of the security of your HARD drive. Glance to download here.
This will leave Nothing on the HARD drive. You can take the time to reinstall an operating system, but at the very least, the new operating system should be Win 98SE or higher.
