How to remove partners.cmptch.com and static.cmptch.com
I get popup messages from my Malwarebytes program which indicate I have two unwanted advertising redirection programs, partners.cmptch.com and static.cmptch.com. How can I remove these two programs

Hi,
Go to the Firefox menu (≡) => Add-ons => Extensions and look for any unfamiliar or suspicious looking extensions.
When you find any : remove them.
Do the same here : for Windows => Control Panel for Mac and Linux => System Preferences
However : most malware will be 'hiding' somewhere , so let's run malware scans (even though you already have run some) :

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

Hopefully that will help you get rid of them.
