    Remove progrms in control panel. ALso check plugins on your browser, ensure its disabled.

    BE a good idea to check the bootup configuration by going to run in the start menu and typing

    msconfig

    It was two weeks ago, my computer got infected by this browser hijacker "Search.SafeFinder.com" and I had tried various ways to remove it but not succeeded. Luckily, I found this guide and finally get rid of that nasty threat from my PC.
