I have this aweful POS and it occasionally pops up like a cold sore. I am running Firefox, and I have deleted it from my search engines, but now and again it will re direct my homepage to it's home page. How do I get rid of this shit? |

Check your installed programs.
FWIW, a lot of "free" software comes bundled with stupid crap like search bars. I have literally seen browsers that only had a quarter of the window showing the website because some people either didn't know that stuff was bundled with their stuff, or didn't know you could opt-out during the install. |

I am guessing that this is the source. The kiddo just installed iTunes on a portable HD using my now infected laptop. I can't find where the damned toolbar is hiding though. |
