search button on task bar

sclozza

When I use the search button on the tool bar, it sends
the search to "IXQuick" search engine even though the
customize box is checked for Yahoo or any of the other
choices. Does anyone know how I can remove this search
engine as the choice for the search button. I also have a
pop up ad that comes when I first hit the search button
and I have to shutdown IE to rmove it.Then when I reopen
IE the pop up doesn't come back. Thanks

Youse has done been hijacked, Jack!

IXQuick has installed itself in your Registry and on your
computer. You can get rid of it with Ad-Aware (
http://lavasoft.element5.com/software/adaware/ ), one of
the BEST spy-ware programs on the market. It has a FREE
download that will do the trick, however, you will like it
soooo much, that you will buy it! That pop-up is
associated with IXQuick and should go away after Ad-Aware
cleanses your computer.
