keep on getting other search windows showing up rather
than the default microsoft one. just got rid of
one "7search" and now have "global-finder"; I know you can
go to tools and reset the default settings, but I don't
want to have to do that everytime. Help me get this
garbage off my computer

Make sure all instances of IE and OE are closed, unzip the tool,
hit the executable and follow the prompts.

Run "Hijack This" for final cleanup -
