View Full Version : Can not remove Fast Browser Search



GreatB
2010-03-08, 00:06
Either I (or the kids) have managed to get Fast Browser Search installed. Fast browser I can not get rid of it. When I open a new tab in Firefox it is the default home page.

I have tried removing by following the instructions provided by the Web-Site. Also looked at entries from other foruns but to no avail. I have tried uninstalling - including going into safe mode to remove the hidden files. Also tried removing entries from Firefox via about:config and the Registry itself. All have failed. Any suggestions?

Hi there,

Download DDS and save it to your desktop from here (http://www.techsupportforum.com/sectools/sUBs/dds) or here (http://download.bleepingcomputer.com/sUBs/dds.scr) or here (http://www.forospyware.com/sUBs/dds).
Disable any script blocker, and then double click dds.scr to run the tool.
When done, DDS will open two (2) logs:
DDS.txt
Attach.txt

Save both reports to your desktop. Post them back to your topic.
