Clean your browser cache and private data. Run a scan using CA Yahoo Antispy.

Firefox > Tools > Clear Private Data ( Select all options ) > Clear private data now

Under privacy tab, there should be an option to clear private data or similar. Use the option you mentioned. I am using FF 3.0 not sure what changes they made in the latest version.
