connects them to the world, gathering information to subjects that they are very
interested about. Some even open up to other countries and learn new
languages, join chat rooms or even download files, music, videos or third party
software. Sometimes when a user downloads too many files they will not notice
that they have already downloaded viruses attached to them and when they run
the software, it also installs itself and infects the computer. The more the virus will
eat up the performance of the computer if the operating system is left vulnerable

Reset Firefox.
Clean the registry keys with a registry cleaner designed to remove registry
keys associated with viruses. One example is the AdwCleaner. When you click
the Delete button, it will start a scan of the registry and pops you messages.
Just click OK and the system will reboot.
To remove the remaining residue of the MyStart by Incredibar, install an anti-
malware program that will delete files associated with the toolbar. This program
will completely remove anything linked to the program. Follow the instructions
presented by the program.
