FIREFOX PROBLEMS (ads, popups, etc on Facebook)

Nov 2, 2012 3:14PM PDT

Recently I noticed that when I go to facebook there are ads between every post and now on the left side of page. This happens only with Firefox. I found out this is some adware which has infected my browser. I am wondering if there is any easy way to get these removed?
Also I keep getting popups and one even said it was a trojan horse. I had antivirus run and find all the viruses. But still having problems with all those ads.
At times it is hard to type as it takes forever to see any letters appear.
I stopped using Internet explorer months ago due to the typing problems with it also.
