I've completed all these steps. My Java system is now 7, Update 9, but I assume that's fine.
It's been 24 hrs since I reinstalled firefox and I haven't seen any re-directs.
Thanks so much for your help. I'm grateful that you volunteered your time and expertise to assist me.
Java, they post updates faster than I can change my socks Thats fine, thanks for the heads up. Keeping Java updated is just another tool in your arsenal for keeping your system secure.
Glad all is well,
Take Care,
Ken
