It's one of the most common problems out there (with good reason - it's one of the most rewarding for those who spread the malware). These programmers are aiming to make a quick dollar or two by sending you to affiliate offers and generating click fraud. Download Malwarebytes as suggested above and follow the procedure. Malwarebytes is probably the best free tool out there for resolving this kind of issue. I'm surprised using Firefox didn't help though. The times in the past, it's only my IE that has been affected.
