If you explore the folder you downloaded it to, has it just got one file, or lots with one called set up

Have you tried downloading a game from a different site

I went to download another game form a different site and it installed Zango Toolbar on my computer how do I get it off. I tried using add/remove programs but it just seems to freeze it. I will just forget about getting the flash games to work. I just want to get Zango toolbar off my computer.

Please follow the procedures outlined here: Malware Removal Guide

You will need a PC which can connect to the internet

Run all the programmes as advised then post a current Hijack This Log in a new topic in the Malware Forum

For the purpose of accurate malware analysis, Hijack This Logs are only dealt with in the Malware Forum. Posting them anywhere else will result in a delayed response

If you are unable to run any of the programmes, please ask for advice in the Malware Forum
