That is not classified as malware/virus but a Potentially Unwanted Programme (PUP)

This due to the fact that some people willingly install that type of programme, it will also come bundled with free software 



If you could run an OTL scan I will check that it has all gone

Your problem is probably related to this ..  Normally I would remove it, but it is something you have installed

FF - prefs.js..extensions.enabledAddons: infoatoms%40infoatoms.com:1.4.0.0

Details here http://www.systemlookup.com/CLSID/76444-InfoAtomsClientIE_dll.html

The addon that it refers to will, when you are browsing produce advert popups, get additional search engines and may install them.  It will track your usage and travels

I found it, should I delete that file? Right now I have renamed by adding "-xxx" to end of file name.

Secondly:

 I think I only send you a single file so I am resending both OTL files again.
