For some unaccountable reason, the Firefox Home Page changed over to to the tr.v9.com home page. Have tried the "Restore to Default" Home Page in "Options", but to no avail. I would think that any site with such persistence is automatically suspect. The site seems to be based in Brazil, and WOT has apparently not tested this site. Super Anti Spyware detected a change in the Home page, and even there, despite clicking on the the "Block" box, the site still remains the Home page.

Something will have changed your preferences, possibly some inadvertently installed toolbar, or out and out malware, see /questions/865466#answer-263643 those steps may help.
