13 Firefox windows autolaunched when updating to SSD 2.4
I had a fairly old version of SSD (sorry, can't remember the version number), and during the updating process to SSD 2.4 free edition, 13 firefox windows autolaunched, then minimized to the task bar.
My guess is that this is not the normal order of things, and that I have some at least moderately sophisticated malware on my machine that is thwarting SSD.
I'm primarily interested in confirming or invalidating my suspicion that the firefox autolaunch was malware generated.
I think the long term solution will have to be switching from XP service pack 3 to a flavor of linux, which I hope to do soon.
Can't recall the version of FF at the time of the update. I've got 35 now, I think the version that I had at the time was 34.?
