I was looking through the config page of firefox on an unrelated matter and I noticed quite a few similar lines to this;
extensions.wrc.SearchRules.virginmedia.com.style
extensions.wrc.SearchRules.virginmedia.com.url
I'm assuming they are some kind of malware or PUP's that have attached themselves over the years. How do I get rid of them?
I just tried Adwcleaner but unfortunately I'm having some problems getting that program to open.
In the config screen it says they are userset. Is it possible just to delete these lines?
For the record I've nothing to do with virginmedia . It's just the first one I noticed when I typed in media in the search box. There is quite a lot of them listed in the config file. It's not slowing down my browser. But if I can get rid of them then I'd appreciate it.
Thanks.
