Somehow a program defaults my Firefox homepage to searchqu.com. I try to change it, but the proram blocks it from changing. How can I find which program on my system controls the homepage setting?

I guess I accidentally downloaded a program that now controls my homepage setting. It automatically defaults the homepage to searchqu.com. It blocks me from changing the setting or restoring to default. How could I find out which program and to remove it?

I did uninstall Windows Ilivid Toolbar but the problem does not go away. The program disappears on the Add/Remove program listing. But I still see the folder Windows Ilivid Toolbar folder under Program Files. It seems that the uninstall actually has no effect.

At last i fixed it. I changed the homepage to whatever and then closed the browser. ILivid prompt a message immediately saying that it blocks the change and then I right clicked on the message box. A panel came up and I chose the setting I wanted, especially to select 'Not to protect the homepage setting' by searchqu.
