Just got round to replacing kit with bright shiny Dell XPS under Win8, so please forgive me if this is posted in the wrong place or has been resolved here before.
I downloaded a printscreen app used before, from Cnet and, no doubt due to my incompetence, have also finished up with unwanted and persistent ads from mysearch.sweetpacks.com. It diverts from the display normally given when I hit the Internet Explorer button. WHATEVER YOU DO, DON'T CLICK ON IT.
Have uninstalled the prog through all apps, but it keeps coming back. Have also tried blocking cookies, etc. An Uninstall button is shown on the screen but I'm nervous about hitting that. Googling only reveals suggestions for installing other progs (more ads?) - which I ain't gonna do.
Your thoughts would be welcomed please.
