One of my friend installed the unofficial version of Firefox (integrated with google toolbar) on my laptop, the link for this version is :

Code:

http://www.firefox-free-download.org/index2.html

Here is how the browser looks like:

I tried to uninstall this version of firefox, when I uninstalled it I received this message:

Code:

,and install the genuine version from the official site , but I could not get rid of the integrated google toolbar, though I have used (after I uninstalled the unofficial version) all utilities like spybot and Ad-aware, Spyware Doctor, and Onlien anti-virus,,,,,,,,,etc

Is there any way to get rid of this unofficial version of firefox ?

Regards

In 'Add/Remove Programs' look for an entry for 'Google' and try to uninstall from there.


Alternately, if you have 'sytem restore points' it may be possible to return your PC to point prior to that the date of that install:

Your best option may be to try a system restore point (if available) to a date before any known problems or before you started performing any recent fixes?

Click on Start>All Programs>Accessories>System Tools>System Restore.

Check Restore my computer to an earlier date> Click Next.

Choose the date before you performed any recent fixes and click Next and Next again.

Once rebooted, please try your Internet connection and post a revised HJT log. Do not uninstall anything.
