It keeps changing to mp3toolbarsearch (powered by Yahoo)

Here are some of the things I've already tried:

  • Deleted the user.js file
  • Deleted the prefs.js file
  • Uninstalled Firefox (including preferences etc.) then reinstalled
  • System restored Windows to a date before the problem started
  • Scanned using many, many anti spyware, anti virus software

Update: Just found out this problem is cross-browser. My homepage is now changed to MP3search on IE and Chrome.
