esnips downloader...hijacked my firefox 4
Hey guys..
I wanted to download the Yarisworld DIY manual in PDF form a few weeks ago and when I clicked the PDF download link from this site for the maunal (http://www.esnips.com/web/yarisworld/).. I was sent to "esnips" website where the PDF is being hosted.. and when I went to download.. esnips then prompted me to use their downloaded software to get the PDF. Anyways.. after I downloaded and installed "esnips downloader" and got the PDF I then un-instaled the software as it was just bloatware and I did not want it.. But now that I have uninstalled esnips off the computer.. it has hijacked my Firefox 4.0 browser Homepage URL. Everytime I restart my browser now it auto sends/re-directs me to the esnips search engine page instead of my default homepage. I don't know how to get rid of this crap now and it's pissing me off.. I am a pretty basic PC user.. and the only option that i read from google seems to advanced and i don't understand what they where talking about. I tried several options that I found from Google on how to fix this.. but none have worked.. can anyone help.. or has anyone had this problem ![]() And can you guys look into removing your manual PDF linked with "esnips" It's got some sort or malicious virus/jacker attached to their software. This is the place I found where someone uncounted my exact problem but I don't understand what they did to fix it.. http://ask.metafilter.com/170298/Fir...ow-do-I-rescue Last edited by Robbie; 03-25-2011 at 08:56 AM. |
