You say to disable AntiVIrus if necessary. Will it prompt me to do so?

Furthemore, I save my session. So if I close FF down, the previous history will be restored. If I have to ever force a shutdown, I restore history.

For this case, should I disable the remember history part?

Just disable Antivirus and run Zoek. No history will be deleted...

So that script you wrote up there is specific that posters machine? How do I get a script to remove topdeal from my pc?
