ond.com... First of all do not touch the Registry unless you know what you are doing. Do not rely on programs that claim to be Registry Tools and fixes because the are all snake oil remedies. Secondly run the following www.malwarebytes.com www.SuperAntiSpyware.com And you should run the FREE versions which will do the job for you. JS |

Thanks GK The suggestion here was MalwareBytes MBAM. The poster with the problem didn't follow through, so no feedback on success. http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/topic416805.html The article here, claims to understand the component parts of the thing, but uses the term "If Hyperbar uses rootkit technologies..." like they don't know whether it does or not. So it doesn't sound like they really know how to defeat it. The registry entries at least, make it seem like the toolbar can download code as it needs it, and is more than just a thing for putting unwanted adverts on your screen. I mean, these days, no software is *this* naive looking. It's bound to have some way to put itself back, put the registry entries back and so on. http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?t=53366 Your System Restore points, are going to have copies of that crap, so if you take the system back a few days with System Restore, you might well get to keep the components. And that's why giving it a bash with MBAM first might be the best thing. Followed by a reboot, and check to see if the .dll is still there or not. Paul |

Hyper Bar 1 - Virus help removal
Sorry for the long reply, I tried using the free programs but they came up
with no detections at all so I thought about deleting the temp internet files and cookies and some other stuff and removed the homepage from the internet options - this has worked, I dont know why, but the HYPER BAR 1 has gone now it might have been from the free programs though the full scans found nothing!?! if anyone has this aswell try like above oh and there was no program called "startnow toolbar" like google said to uninstall to fix.

If it's not malware, the malware scans wouldn't be expected to find it. Using Google, I didn't find any indication that it's malware - but I didn't look around very much. if anyone has this aswell try like above oh and there was no program called "startnow toolbar" like google said to uninstall to fix.
