I have gotten two search bars lately, and I don't know where they came from unless it was included in something I downloaded. The AVG search bar pops up when I go to Chrome, I could find no way to uninstall it, as it does not show up in Control Panel > Add Remove Programs, it does not show up in Revo-Unstaller. . it has been there for about a month and I have learned to live with it. Yesterday I started to download TeraCopy for copying files as reccomended by Kim Kamondo, the download went well for a while then became slow and jerky so I canceled it. I didn't get the TeraCopy but I got 4 new shortcuts on my desk top, and a new search bar called start.mysearchdial.com , which thankfully WOT an extension on Chrome will block, but it does not show up in Add Remove or Revo-unInstaller either, every thing I have searched for says that is the way to get rid of it but you can't if it isn't there. I scanned with Malwarebytes and got 28 hits all were POP Pup or something like that and they were removed, I then ran CCleaner, then scanned with Trend Micro Titanium and got zero infected files etc I managed to find and delete 3 of the programs from the short cuts on my desk top but one "Free Games" is still there (it is not found in add remove either) click on it and it comes up My Search Dial Games with a selection of 6 game pictures and when you hover the mouse over them they say 'Download Now" so I am assuming they can't cause a problem since I don't plan to download them. Should I deleted the shortcut? Or let it stay? Or is there another way to get rid of that? I am using a Windows 7 64bit Dell Laptop, Another thing that happened is that I have never set a default home page, when I open Internet explorer MSN home page comes up, when I open Chrome Google page comes up. Now with this incident Google Chrome has been made my default home page and is on IE too. I don't know if to restore to before yesteerday would help or if it would just unleash what I have already gotten rid of. Any advice would be appreciated I am not very computer savy and answers would have to be simple but I am beginning to think simple will not fix this. But as of right now every scan I run shows all is ok. I don't have a Spyware downloaded but I think it is included in Trend Micro Titanium. 1. AVG search bar 2. Startmysearchdial search bar 3. FREE Games 4. Go back to no default so IE is MSN and Chrome is Google 5.Restore to previous day? Bobbie
