Coupigo Adware Removal Instructions

Seems like there’s a lot of new adware variants popping up right now. Found a new one called Coupigo this morning. Coupigo adds itself into Firefox and Internet Explorer. Here’s how it appears in Firefox:

The anti-virus programs are clearly aware of the Coupigo adware. Just check out the detection result from VirusTotal. Graftor and MultiPlug seems to be the most common detection names. I’d say 33/53 is pretty good:
