I thought I was downloading a free radio/tv with an uninstall but it is not in the add remove nor is it listed in my downloads. Now I have Oryte! and their toolbar taking over. We have tried everything and can not get Oryte! removed. I read that even if I uninstall FF when I reinstall it Oryte! will still be there. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Suzitu

Check the add-ons manager to see if it is listed there, see uninstalling add-ons for details, in particular the section on uninstalling extensions and themes.

I too downloaded what I thought was an audio editing program. Name is ELF, by Oryte.

It took over my toolbar on Safari. But no more!!

TO REMOVE:

search on your computer---elf

highlight all elf files

File------move to trash

Secure empty trash--------gone.

I hope this helps
