Another issue with toolbars

Back again.

My home page keeps getting reset to ISEARCH. Also, I have got an ISEARCH toolbar under my address box on IE. Why wont it go when I run all these fancy getting rid of it programs?

A few months ago my computer fine, and now, I seem to get unindated with ads, pop ups, reset home pages, flight sim suddenly stopping.

I have uninstalled Kazaa now too.

Hi Tonic,

Please download 'Hijack This!' from here, unzip, and place it in it’s own folder, (not in the temp folder, or on the desktop) doubleclick HijackThis.exe, and hit "Scan". When the scan is finished, click "Save Log", and copy and paste it in a PM to me.

This will give me a rundown of what’s going on in your PC. Don’t fix anything yourself yet, as a lot of the stuff on that list will be harmless or required.

Cheers

Liam

Tonic Please,

There have been several people with that malware in their system in these forums. Any of the malware removers (Ad-Aware, Spybot, Pest Patrol, etc.) will get rid of it for you.

Take Care,

Richard
