Had a few problems like MSN crashing etc. Then when I ran Malware it found 8 tracking cookies/adware named Bandoo some in the directory. Anyway had malware remove the adware then all kinds of problems, now I couldn't even send an email it would crash. Like you I tried to use the control panel to delete but the message was it couldn't find the .exe file.
Finally I went into C drive and opened the programs file and if you open Bandoo they have an Uninstall there. I used that and it disappeared.
Bandoo just takes over I even tried system restore to go back before Bandoo. Even in safe mode Restore wouldnt work. If you look close in the C program Bandoo has a item in there for system restore. I even lost all my previous recovery points.
I would not recommend down loading Bandoo to anyone. Maybe it was me but nothing but problems

</p>By the way... I think I have finally found a way to be free from searchqu.com.... This will at least2011-03-15T11:30:37-07:00ConWhttps://support.mozilla.org/zu/questions/763558#answer-147644<p>By the way... I think I have finally found a way to be free from <a href="http://searchqu.com" rel="nofollow">searchqu.com</a>.... This will at least be a partial solution. I had disabled it by going to the DOS command line, doing a dir for searchqu and then conduit... and then deleting anything I figured didn't belong... while in SafeMode! Anyway the steps from Windows (XP). 1. Start 2. Control Panel 3. Internet Options 4. General 5. Search........Settings 6. Google - Set as Default 7. Web Search (Searchqu) - Remove
and while I was there I got rid of Babylon too!
I mention this here because searchqu in the search box brought me here!... if anyone knows of a better location... copy and paste, please. What's important is helping others!

<p>p.s. just to clarify, I used the Tools/homepage method.
</p>Did you check the Home page setting?

<p>If you need to (re)set the pref keyword.URL then you can open the about:config page via the location bar.
</p><p>To open the <i>about:config</i> page, type <b>about:config</b> in the location (address) bar and press the "<i>Enter</i>" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.<br>
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.<br>

I really didn't understand how to proceed. I don't want to be a bother but is there a step by step set of directions that an old plumber could muddle through. I worry about doing the wrong thing and corrupting my whole PC. Last year when I bought it I messed up and had to do 2 recovers! Any additional help would be greatly appreciated.
