Subject: Tech: Wisesearch Malware?
This thing is driving me nuts! I have been trying to get rid of it for over a week now and am at the end of my tether, hence this plea.

I am running WinXP and chrome browser.

Can someone please tell me how to remove it. I've tried all the "googled" methods. Deleted it from Settings/cookies/search engines/ I even went to regedit and found something there that I got rid of. but it's still there every morning when I log on, so I go through the whole procedure again, EVERY TIME!

Most of the google results give free downloads guaranteeing to get rid but I am pretty sure that was how I picked it up in the first place, by trying one of these solutions to get rid of something else, so I am now a bit wary of any "free" downloads.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

John
