My Way:My Web Search

[hornet]

I started a thread last week saying that having done a scan with Spybot it logged up this with 30 PUPS noted. Although it does not not slow my computer down did I need to delete it?
I received a reply from 'drragostea' saying it would be a good idea to delete it and to start a new thread in Malware removal.
I did yesterday at 16.47 and now I get a reply from 'Shaba' saying that I put it in the wrong place and the forum is the place for help and I need to read the 'before you post' entry and post the required logs.
Well I read it before I started, and what is 'Hijack this' and how do I get it if I need it?
A previous thread by someone else mentioned clearing it by running Spybot in safe mode and deleting it, but I do not have a 'My Web Search' toolbar either on IE or Firefox, neither is it listed when I click on Add/Remove programs.
How should I start, where should I go for assistance?

I do not believe that Shaba (http://forums.spybot.info/member.php?u=13017) indicated that you posted in the wrong place. Shaba (http://forums.spybot.info/member.php?u=13017) asked you to read "BEFORE you POST"(READ this Procedure BEFORE Requesting Assistance) (http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?t=288) and to start a new thread because you failed to post the required HijackThis log in the old thread. In addition Shaba (http://forums.spybot.info/member.php?u=13017) archived your thread to remove it from the active threads in the Malware Removal (http://forums.spybot.info/forumdisplay.php?f=22) forum.

HijackThis is a utility that scans your registry and various other files and produces a listing of settings found in your system. If you re-read "BEFORE you POST"(READ this Procedure BEFORE Requesting Assistance) (http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?t=288) carefully, I believe you will find it has detailed instructions on downloading, running and posting the results of the HijackThis utility.
