I was able to get rid of the Slotch junk in my system using Ad-Aware, and
Norton AV, but I'm left unable to search from the address bar. I've been
through this before, but even setting the settings in Search Options, to use
MSN from the address bar, I still get Page Cannot be Displayed and the ?%20
in front of the search word in the address bar. Please point me in the
right direction. The computer is clean now.

This page has various registryfixes toward the bottom of the page. - Repair
default prefix should fix it.

Restore default Search functions:

In order to restore you default Search functions, download and run the
program below. You will have to redo any customized features you may have
added afterward.

I have been trying to get my address bar search back for weeks! I finally
got it back Following the link
http://www.malwarebytes.biz/forums/i...?showtopic=131 WHICH WAS
POINTED OUT IN ANOTHER STRING.


I was able to use a program called HiJACK THIS. I deleted all the entries
it suggested were bogus, and I bet there are more bogus entries there as
well, but after learning all I have about where the bad registry entries
would be, I GOT THEM.... BAM!

What a great feeling to have the address bar search back to normal.

THANKS TO ANYONE WHO TRIED TO HELP.
BK.
