h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Ever since my web browser Firefox updated, it has caused nothing but problems? After a lot of effort and searching I have discovered that its the AVG Tool Bar that is the problem.

Yet no matter how much I try I cant seem to delete it? I can see it there but all it will let me do is enable or disable it

So, to save any more is there anyone out there who can explain how to delete it, and please don't say follow the guide on Internet Explorer, as that does is send me round the houses

when did it update and was it an auto update or did you let it

Aye! thanks for that, it updated last night, I normally just click on the pop up appeared, and its always been OK in the past.

Been told its the AVG toolbar that's causing it, and right enough it is the AVG logo that appears on every new page I open, it used to be Google?

Been trying to delete the AVG toolbar all night, but instructions I got don't match what I see on the screen?

Go into windows and useing the windows manager revert to an erlier save point it should be prior to the upgrade point

Aye! thanks for that, I have since solved the problem, I removed AVG and all its attachments, while the computer was in safe mode.

Then I installed the free version of AVAST, which I have in our desk top, then I installed the very latest version of Firefox, and that did the job

I even solved the "new tab" problem as well, so now all is now.

Thanks again
