Hello, my apologies for not doing this properly, I have read the Sticky 'Do This Before You Post' posts at the top of the forum but my computer won't let me download the links and I'm a bit confused...

I was wondering if someone here could help me? Whenever I type in any search boxes the search suggestions are covered by a new list of suggestions from 'Suggestiontool.org'. It is terribly annoying and I cannot seem to get rid of it. It is discussed here:

https://productforums.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!topic/chrome/w99XZF8T5c0

with no real conclusion but with a good screencap. Can anybody help?

Thank you so much for taking the time,

Kate

Hi KateWhitehart, welcome to the forum.


To make cleaning this machine easier

• Please do not uninstall/install any programs unless asked to
  It is more difficult when files/programs are appearing in/disappearing from the logs.
• Please do not run any scans other than those requested
• Please follow all instructions in the order posted
• All logs/reports, etc.. must be posted in Notepad. Please ensure that word wrap is unchecked. In notepad click format, uncheck word wrap if it is checked.
• Do not attach any logs/reports, etc.. unless specifically requested to do so.
• If you have problems with or do not understand the instructions, Please ask before continuing.
• Please stay with this thread until given the All Clear. A absence of symptoms does not mean a clean machine.

Download the 2 attached files and save them to you desktop.


Extract the contents of tool.zip to your desktop. You will now have a file named OTL.exe with a yellow and black diamond shaped icon on your desktop.

• Double click on the icon to run it. Make sure all other windows are closed and to let it run uninterrupted.
• Click on Minimal Output at the top
• Double click inside the Custom Scan box at the bottom
• A window will appear saying "Click OK to load a custom scan from a file or Cancel to cancel"
• Click the OK button and navigate to the file scan.txt which we just saved to your desktop
• Select scan.txt and click Open. Writing will now appear under the Custom Scan box
• Click the Run Scan button. Do not change any settings unless otherwise told to do so. The scan won't take long.
  
  • When the scan completes, it will open two notepad windows. OTL.Txt and Extras.Txt. These are saved in the same location as OTL.
  • Please copy (Edit->Select All, Edit->Copy) the contents of these files, one at a time and post them in your topic
