FN-FORUM: [OT] Globalwebsearch

date posted 30th June 2003 20:03

Folks,

Slightly off target here. Neighbours downloaded (by mistake) a toolbar for
IE entitled Global web search, which highlights such interesting words as
lesbian and creates a link to a site related to this. There is no uninstall
program and if you deselect the toobar in IE it still comes back. It also
adds itself, and some more porn sites to the favourites and changes your
homepage to www.globalwebsearch.com I don't want to have to go and blat the
machine, just wondered if anyone else has come across this.

Regards,

Martin
