Hi all, this is my first post, so be gentle. I have no idea what got installed to put this Accoona search on my PC, but I cannot get rid of it. There's no search bar, it just default to Accoona when using the Address Bar Search etc. Here's my HijackThis log:

I'm assuming that the keys near the top, after Running Processes, that list 'Accoona' are the ones I need to select in order to restore my search to the default settings?

Thanks in advance

Can anyone give any help with this? I haven't used HijackThis before, so don't want to mess things up.
