Why is there a "RocketTab" ad on my google search?

I installed Firefox today and I got all this funky stuff on my computer. I had to change some of my google chrome options, but I don't know how to get rid of it. Basically, under my time ( where it says About 2,660,000,000 results (0.43 seconds) ), I see a Yelp, CityGrid, Groupon, Wikipedia, Flickr, Youtube, Info, and Rockettab logo. Can someone help me remove it?
