[QUOTE="Emilem, post: 347531, member: 34025"] 02/09/2015. My sister installed something and now something called safe search decided to hop on-board with it. Now it has taken over. I tried getting rid of it in the registry, but I guess it could be embedded in other locations that I could not find. The biggest problem is that I can't change my settings in Google Chrome. It keeps telling me that I can't change the search engine because it is locked by the administrator, but I am the administrator (in fact, the only user on this computer). I saw that other people posted about the same issue, but the solutions said that they were only for their specific machine, so I did not want to risk it. This is the first malware I have not been able to get rid of on my own. I hate this thing. I've also never used this site before, so I hope I posted in the right place and did everything I needed to in order to get the help. This thing is evil because it doesn't even seem vicious, just really obnoxious. [/QUOTE]
