Hello julianhanford.

Unfortunatley your dealing with malware that you of course will want to get rid of.

See : http://www.besttechtips.org/how-to-remove-onlinevideoconverter-com/

Go to the Firefox menu (≡) Preferences => Add-ons => Extensions and remove anything that looks unfamiliar or suspicious. (your system details only show two legit extensions, though)

Next step : run malwarescans.

Further information can be found in this article : https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-caused-malware?cache=no

Run most or all of the listed malware scanners. They all work differently - what one program doesn't pick up, the other might.
