Babaloyn Toolbar

[KateAkaGunner]

i ran Spybot Search&Destroy last night...it brought up Babylon Toolbar saying it was an issue. I tried to use the program to clean it.

it was not able to so i ran on start-up...still no luck

Babylon Toolbar is not listed anywhere on my hard-drive...its not in programs...i did a hard-drive search first for Babylon then for just BAB...both time it said there was nothing in my hard-drive with those letters

its not listed in start-menu, programs, nor the removal for programs & features in Vista Home Basic Service Pack 2...its also not listed as a Firefox add-on

any suggestions? thank you

Could you please do this?

• Open SpyBot.
• Check for problems.
• When the scan completes, right click on the results list, select "Copy results to clipboard".
• Paste (Ctrl+V) those results here.

Please go here and download the file:

Unzip it to the main application folder (usually C:\Program Files\Spybot - Search & Destroy\) and replace the old file with the new one.

The number in curly brackets shows that it most likely is babylon:

It's listed as open for debate.

Since you can't find any more of Babylon anywhere on your computer,perhaps the registry key Spybot found was a leftover of a past install.

You could try a scan in safe mode and see if it's removed then:
Reboot your computer into SafeMode by doing the following:

• Restart your computer
• After hearing your computer beep once during startup, but before the Windows icon appears, begin tapping F8.
• Instead of Windows loading as normal, a menu should appear.
• Select the first option, to run Windows in Safe Mode.

Open Spybot-S&D while still in safe mode.

• Rightclick Spybot and select Run as administrator.
• Close all browsers, check for problems and fix everything found in red
• Close Spybot-S&D
• Reboot back into Windows
