Do as Sergey Goldberg said. To completely get rid of SavingToYou adware completely, you not only remove it from browser but also need to clean up malicious files and registry keys from the system. However, manual removal is not as easy as think. You should be careful when you edit the registry files. For reducing the risk, you can check out this SavingToYou step-by-step removal guide http://howtovirusremoval.com/how-to-get-rid-of-savingtoyou-pop-up-ads/
