Hi, I have Win7 64-bit and use Firefox and Google as my default search engine. Somehow I got hijacked by “Secury-surf.com”. This is the only search I can get now. I have been trying for quite a while to uninstall but unable to do it. It is not listed in Add/Remove Programs. I have removed all history from Firefox and installed Google Chrome. Nothing seems to help. How do I get rid of this hijacker completely?
