How can you get a virus by just visiting a web page & not clicking anything? To top it off, I am using Firefox 64 bit. That suppose to provided better security.

It was detected & removed by Microsoft security essentials in windows 7 but I will restore from back up & hope this doesn't happen again. I am beginning to dislike computers. Just because you visit a medical site you shouldn't get viruses.
Marking this solved for now, I am going to restore from a backup image.
Edit
After restoring my image.
I did a full system scan using MSE in windows 7 & Defender in Windows 10 nothing found.
I also scanned with Malwarebytes also nothing found. Yes, I checked the root kit detector option.
At least, I know my restore image is clean.
