How to get rid of DELTA SEARCH

[azali]

definitely solve the delta search web page on additional tabs opened. TQ very much.

Hi there, this has been the bane of my existence for a while now too! Delta search seemed to be impossible to remove from my new tab search. Tonight I finally discovered the answer WHOO HOO!! And so I came on here and registered JUST to share it with whoever may be suffering with the same problem. Simply click on this link https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/fir...-tab-homepage/ and download the addon listed. When they ask if you would like to use Delta search make sure you have NOT checked the box to do so... then continue. It finally worked for me... I am celebrating tonight haha!!

I've taken all these steps, and uninstalled the program I thought was associated with it, but delta still hijacks my page. The ironic thing is that the only thing I've downloaded to my computer was Spybot. Not to be a conspiracy theorist, but I'm assuming that's where it came from, especially because Spybot does nothing to remove it. I've also uninstalled Chrome, but each time I reinstall it, delta returns with it. Pretty angry right now.



1. Open Google Chrome, click on the "Options" icon by the right side of the address bar; click on Settings:
2. Under "On startup", choose the option "Open a specific page or set of pages."
3. Click on "Set pages" and delete Delta's page from the list by clicking the small "x" icon besides it.
To change the Search Engine in Google Chrome:
1. Open Google Chrome, click on the "Options" icon by the right side of the address bar;
2. Click on Settings > Under "Search" click on "Manage search engines...":
If you see Delta Search as default, please click on a different option (Google, Bing etc.), make it default
3. Remove Delta by clicking the small 'x'
Also check if any Delta extension were installed in Google Chrome:
1. Open Google Chrome, click on the "Options" icon on the right side of the address bar:
2. Go to Tools > Extensions.
3. Remove any Delta extension (Translator, Toolbar) from the list by clicking on the small trash can icon that will appear when you point the cursor over it.
If you're using Internet Explorer:
1. Go to the Start Menu. Select Control Panel → Add/Remove Programs.

Hello dexi39,

I've taken all these steps, and uninstalled the program I thought was associated with it, but delta still hijacks my page.

Not to be a conspiracy theorist, but I'm assuming that's where it came from, especially because Spybot does nothing to remove it.

Our software doesn't bundle toolbars.

If you would like someone to take a look at the system please start a topic in the Malware Removal Forum and a volunteer analyst will advise when available.

First see that forum's FAQ which also includes instructions in post #2 on how to provide DDS and aswMBR logs, which are used in the preliminary analysis.

I went here: http://malwaretips.com/blogs/remove-delta-search/

I downloaded what the pages suggested and it seems to be gone, and it was all done within five minutes.

Glad it worked out for you.

I finally got rid of it. It's not just Delta search stuff you have to get rid of, you also have to get rid of DSearchLink. Deleting those files got rid of delta from my home page. Hallelujah!
