How do I delete the Pogo game - web search tab from my Firefox toolbar?

Posted

Every time I open Firefox is goes to pogo.com as my home page even though I've told it I want charter as my home page. I change it under tools but once I close Firefox it resets to Pogo. I want to get rid of the pogo completely.

I was able to remove pogo start page and pogo display on 'new tabs'. I manually reset my home page to what I wanted it to be in the 'Options' menu. Then I went into 'Extensions' and also into 'Plugins'. I removed and / or disabled anything that said Oberon and Gamesbar. I also deleted cookies, etc. You will have to restart Firefox after doing these steps. After that, my Home page stayed, and I did not see pogo when I opened a new tab. I hope this helps. Take care. JT
