Viruses and other malware

[Parabolica]

Try going into your control panel, opening Internet Options and see what the default browser is set to. Sometimes that can deactivate a rogue browser if you reset to Google.

You could also look in the Programs panel and uninstall anything that you don't recognize. That sometimes works.

I've reset the default to google
I'm going through the Programs by stages - the trouble is there's things there like Roxio which are kosher but I don't know what they do - and I have to check out each one I don't recognise in case I delete something vital.

what windows version are you using?

Also have you tried to open the firefox addon settings to try to uninstall babylon from there?

Thanks, I think I have got rid of it now. I'll run that software tomorrow evening for a final clean up and to make sure.
