I installed jZip this evening to try to unzip a gz file (or something like that... can't remember at the moment) and ever since then I haven't been able to change my homepage back to what it was. I've gone to Mozilla/Options and changed it there, I went to Control Panel/Internet Options as well, to no avail. The address it's defaulting to is: http://search.jzip.com/. I even uninstalled the unzipping program and everything. I checked in the Firefox profile folder xxxxxxxx.default and the items named "search.sqlite" and "search.json" have a new date of creation or updating (you know, when you hover over them it gives you the time and date). I also found a folder in the profile folder named "jziptoolbar" with the same date (yesterday because it's after 12 midnight now). Should I delete it? I'm actually wondering if I should completely uninstall and delete Firefox and Mozilla and start all over. Thank you, Thank you, for any and all help that you can provide. I sure appreciate it.
