Every other time I enter a URL or click a link after a Google search, I inevitably get directed to this URL and can´t get out of it: https://mx.search.yahoo.com/yhs/errorhandler?hspart=gt&hsimp=yhse-gt&q=www.googleadservices.com%2Fpagead%2Fconversion.js%3Chttp%3A%2F%2Fwww.googlea&type=769480

I read the solution which says:

You can do the following to reset Firefox to it's Yahoo-less state. 

   Remove all Yahoo extensions from the Extensions list (press Option + SHIFT + A)
   Do a search on yahoo in about:config and reset them (Right click > Reset)

Problem is, there are no Yahoo extensions to remove! (I pressed Option + SHIFT + A) I searched about:config but couldn´t find how to reset the extensions. I am using a Mac.

Please HELP!!!!!
