Removing wierd links

Guest

My daughter was browsing the internet and ended up on www.personaltest.co.uk. An installation window appeared and she clicked yes. Now there is two buttons on the 'Tools' menu and the toolbar for Erotic and IQ Test. Clicking them takes you to different web pages. However, I can't figure out how to get rid of them! Any help? lol

Hi,

Click on the toolbar, and then on 'Customize'. You should be able to drag
and drop the icons you wish to remove from one side to another, thus removing
them.

You should note that this will not remove the program. In this specific
case, you may wish to consider installing an AdWare removing program, such as
AdAware to remove other traces. The running of this program will not
necessarily remove the program in question however. You may need to manually
remove the program by systematically identifying its components, and deleting
them.

Richard,
Go to http://www.mvps.org/sramesh2k/Toolkit.htm for Toolbar Cop. If these
are just toolbar add-ons, Toolbar Cop should remove them.
