Hi all
I hope you can help me - I have been googling this morning for advice on how to stop something called searchnu.com/430 appearing in my Google Chrome browser window (and replacing it!) but thus far there appears to be only advice from companies wanting you to follow what they say (and probably end up paying to do so!).
It would appear to be some kind of hijacker and the range of advice I have seen so far involves "just" modifying registry entries or even completely reinstalling an OS. As my laptop came with its OS pre-installed I can't do that and, ideally, would hope there is a better way of removing searchnu.
Can anyone help please? I am reasonably 'puter literate as a user so am comfortable (if someone gives me clear instructions) on modifying registry etc.
