markg2 Posted July 13, 2014 ID:852242 Share Posted July 13, 2014 Win7 I've read the MWB article on the referenced. I've checked uninstall and the program is not there (alphabetized listing by Name (Fb?) and Publisher (HTTO)). I've searched the drive for fb*.* using 'Everything' and find nothing. But the damn thing still replaces the homepage in FF. ? Mark Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

markg2 Posted July 13, 2014 Author ID:852268 Share Posted July 13, 2014 Kevin-- During the interim I again searched on the topic and found reliable evidence for adwcleaner_3.215.exe. I ran the software, unchecked several items that I wasn't sure should be deleted, rebooted and FF opened absent the homepage replacement. I plan on running that software again and this time doing more research on the items I deselected to see if in fact they're worthy of deleting or keeping. I greatly appreciate your quick response.
