Downloaded a video copy program for streaming video... HyperCam2...it looked like I was avoiding the add-on tool bar by BABALON, or some such spelling....

Have deleted it from the program list with uninstaller, have re-listed google as my homepage numerous times.(no luck).

I uninstalled Firefox, and tried to re-install, and its in the damn downloaded software from Mozilla.

THIS IS GETTING OLD. AS I HAVE INSTALLED AND UNINSTALLED FIREFOX 10-15 times in the last 3 years.

If some stupid browser company can get in...who else can get in?
