Sorry, I didn't mentioned, that Babylon is not visible in add/remove.
The Babylon string here persist in InternetExplorer->Tools->InternetOptions, and
will not get removed.

Se the string here:

you mean it sets it self back again?

thats weird.
what antivirus do you use? also, when did you install babylon toolbar? or it got installed with another program?

Yes, that is what I mean.

I used Security Essential.

I'm not sure where Babylon got installed

**koolkat77** · 26 Dec 2011

could you post a screen shot of your add/remove programs for me please

darkhorse · 26 Dec 2011

For sure, that will be my pleasure.

hi again, thanks for the screenshot. i see there's no babylon installed there.
i'm posting a step by step screen shot sequence for you. this is for internet explorer if you want,
i will post the same for mozilla too

go to tools>internet options>click on use blank>apply>ok

go to tools>internet options again and on search click>settings>first apply default to either google or bing (whichever you have)

then select babylon & just remove it

hope this helps.
