How do I remove www-search.net? - braveaunt466 - 04-28-2014 08:12 PM
I just recently came across the problem of 'www-search.net' being my default homepage... I understand and know the reason for it being on my computer and have done several searches on the internet on how to remove it.
All links tell me to remove programs that are related to the search engine and or to remove the extension of the search engine from my browser. Well I have used "Should I Remove It?' program to see what programs I should delete. Now I know this does not mean I have deleted the accosted program, but I have deleted every program that had been installed on the date of the issue occurring.
Help and or suggestions?
