Remove Bright Browse - Change Your Homepage From Bright Browse

Recently, users complain about the Bright Browse, it change users' browser homepage and won't go:

I was trying to download a YouTube video to show it offline at a presentation and like an idiot I installed an app (which actually worked) but came with something called Bright Browse that appears to be crapware and cannot be uninstalled through normal means. It's currently installed as a Firefox add on as a toolbar that cannot be disabled. Has anyone run across this toolbar?  They have a website, it looks to be maybe borderline legit, but any program that does not allow for uninstall cannot be good!
