Hello all,

thanks for these replies. In fact, after trying many more 
approaches to this Incredibar problem, I eventually 
downloaded a spyware program I used to use a few years ago 
called Spybot Search and Destroy and it was the only one 
which was able to recognise it and fix the problem. The 
other four malwre programs I tried were not up to the job, 
including Malwarebytes.

Again, thanks for the responses.

John.

Possibly try running Malwarebytes on the machine for 
automatic removal or here are some manual removal 
instructions:

Hi John

This pest is often downloaded riding on the back of other 
programs. It's
invaded me a couple of times and I just uninstall it using 
the Control
Panel/Add Remove Programs or Program and Preferences if 
using Win7. But then
go into C drive/Programs and delete the Incredible entry you 
see there or
the damned thing will come back. That seems to work for me.

Hello All,

As the subject line says, I have somehow got a browser
hijacker installed onto my computer. I have tried much of
what I can find on Google as remedies but nothing works. It
is said to be a terrible malware program to delete.

I have found a specific program to run on the Norton site
but, as with most of Norton's one-off file deletion
programs, it is completely inaccessible.

I have also used System Restore as far back as six weeks
ago, when I don't think I had it, but it still returns every
time I launch IE8. It is also imbedded in Google Chrome and
Firefox.

I have run up-to-date versions of MS Security and
Malwarebytes but they don't even find it, let alone remove
it!

Has anyone any experience of this who can advise the best
method to extinguish it?

John.
