  • Heya just wanted to give you a brief heads up and let you know a few of the pictures aren’t loading properly.
    I’m not sure why but I think its a linking issue.
    I’ve tried it in two different browsers and both show the same outcome.

  • Thanks! Got the virus (piggybacked on another download). Somehow my System Restore ability had gotten turned off (no idea how) and it said I had no points to restore from so I was really nervous

    Uninstalled it from the programs list (it was on there) but that did nothing so had to go through everything else. The homepage fix worked, but it wasn’t in the gagdets or add-ons, and it didn’t stop redirecting me whenever I opened a new tab. I downloaded CCleaner, that didn’t help

    What ended up helping stop the redirects actually was hidden within the add-ons, but in an odd place – it was an extension that externally didn’t look like it should have anything to do with Easylife. I organized my extensions by date, though, and deleted anything installed in the last day. Rebooted my computer, and the redirects have stopped happening for Firefox at least
