Just Me

I seem to have the same problem on both my lap top and
desk top. I have a tool bar that added itself and wont
let me take it off. It's iSearch. Now I did set my
options so 3rd party tool bars can't be used and it did
get rid of it. BUT all my tool bars are LOCKED and I
can't add or take off anything. When I go to
view/toolbars everything is greyed out and "lock
toolbars" isn't even there. Anyone who can help please e-
mail me at (e-mail address removed)
Thanks in advance for your time and help.

iSearch website has hijacked your browser.

1. Use the following scanners to find and remove the website.

SpyBot S&D searches your harddisk for so-called spy- or adbots;
http://security.kolla.de/
or
Adaware
http://www.lavasoftusa.com/software/adaware/
or
CoolWebShredder
http://www.spychecker.com/program/coolwebshredder.html

2. Some porn websites redirects links to their websites using your HOSTS
file. Do a search for the HOSTS (without extension) file and remove the
entry.

3. If still no joy, download HijackThis from Spywareinfo download page

http://www.spywareinfo.com/program/hijackthis.html

Run the program and you will find many entries. Most are OK. Post the log. I
will find the problem for you.

4. For future preventive maintenance, make sure programs cannot just
download on your computer without your permission. From the Internet
Toolbar, go to Tools > Internet Options > Advanced. Make sure "Enable
Install On Demand (Internet Explorer)" and "Enable Install On Demand
(Other)" are unchecked.
