How do I get rid of swagbucks search from coming up when I search from my address bar?

I have deleted swagbucks from control panel and add ons. But when I try to do a search from my address bar the stupid swag search results comes up. I have e-mailed them more times that I can count and they wont help. It is driving me crazy. I even went so far as to to completely delete my account at swagbucks.

hello Kygirl, please install the search reset addon - it will revert the most common customziations those adware programs do in firefox back to the default (including the keyword search from the location bar): https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/

  • HELP! How do I get rid of the volume noise that plays when I switch from internal speakers to external speakers?

    How do I get rid of the volume noise that plays when I switch from internal speakers to external speakers? I'm trying to watch something on my TV through an HDMi cable (& apple adapter) and when I go to switch the sound control in preferences from internal speakers to SONY TV, the annoying "popping" noise occurs on my TV's speakers.

    Go to Edit > Preferences > General > Import Settings and check the box for error correction, and then try one of the problem CDs again.

    Thanks Meg. Trouble is it disrupts emails addresses being keyed in - that is, not from the Contacts book...
    How so?  You trying to type over it? If you keep typing the addresses drop below to next line.  I have tried and tried to make it disrupt anything without success.

  • How do I get rid of the numbers after the URL when I type one in the search field?

    I got an update from Firefox and now every time I put in a URL-- usually to get to Yahoo's home page, I get a bunch of numbers after the url, e.g., www.yahoo.com/01_CJekxpo and the numbers are different every time. I have tried everything I can think of to get rid of these numbers--to no avail. How do I get rid of them and where did they come from? It's irritating!

  • How do I get rid of the update request on screen when I am running version 21

    How do I get rid of the request to update my version of Firefox below my search request on the front page when I have already updated to Firefox version 21. My search engine is http://www.google.co.uk/firefox
    Thanks for any help.

    Try to use the SearchReset extension to reset some preferences to the default values.
    *https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/
    Note that the SearchReset extension only runs once and then uninstalls automatically, so it won't show on the "Firefox > Add-ons" page (about:addons).
    Current Firefox versions use the default search engine (pref: browser.search.defaultenginename) to set the search engine that is used on the about:home page.
    Check the <b>browser.search.defaultenginename</b> pref on the <b>about:config</b> page and make sure that it is set to the default value Google.

    if that doesn't help, in Safari, throw away your history from the days since you had the issue. that may get rid of it. If it doesn't you may need to throw away your cookies (which isnt' any fun because it'll sign you out of any site you regularly sign into)

  • How do I get rid of various lines around text boxes when using navigation panes

    How can I get rid of these various lines that are displaying sporatically around different text boxes . . . but only when the navigation panel is displaying?  I previously had the issue and changed the text box properties to no fill.  It fixed the problem in the document with no navigation panel, but once the navigation panel is displayed the lines appear.  And yes, I fixed the text box properties before creating the bookmarks for the navigation panel.

    Every device, browser and browser version has its idiosyncrasies.
    Just using a stroke and a drop shadow should not have been enough to require Muse to convert the page fill to an image. Were/are there also other effects on the page? Are the page corners slightly rounded?
    Bevel and Inner Glow definitely require an image to be created. Most other effects/properties do not.

  • How can I get rid of all the 'adobe' sources listed when importing in Lightroom?

    How can I get these files to eject/disappear? I have tried searching them in finder and can't find them? Thank you.

    Those appear to be disk-image files (extension .DMG) somewhere on your hard drive, perhaps that are mounted as volumes and you need to eject or unmount them.  They are likely installers downloaded from Adobe.

    You should be able to delete them from the bookshelf in the iBooks app via the Edit button at the top right of the bookshelf. If they show on the bookshelf with a cloud symbol on them then try turning Settings > iBooks > Show All Purchases 'off'. Is that what is happening ?

  • How to get rid of install.mac - conduit - bing override when performing search in safari?

    I downloaded paintbrush through safari on my mac.  Now whenever I perform a search (writing text in the url area), i am redirect to install.mac - conduit - bing.  How to get rid of it?

    Okay i had the exact same thing aswell and it drove me crazy! I'm pretty sure i got it by downloading Paintbrush as well I finally figured out how to get rid of it tho, even after calling apple support which resulted with no solution.
    - First try to reset safari by clicking the safari tab next to the apple logo (top left), then select reset safari from the drop down box (make sure all boxes are ticked aswell)
    - Then after safari has reset go to preferences and select the privacy tab. Then go to the section Cookies and other websites data and select details.
    after that select Remove all.
    - Also make sure that your default search engine is https://www.google.com (or whatever you prefer) and that in the extentions tab there are no dodgy add-ons and things.
    - You can then exit safari, 
    (here comes the tricky bit)
    - You will need to go to you finder and select the Painbrush App, then move that b**** to the trash.
    - Once that is gone, go to the search bar in finder and type in Paintbrush.
    - Then click the +icon just below the search bar.
    - You will then want to select the ^
    - Once the brop down box appears select other
    - You will then need to search System Files in the search bar, and then tick the box next to it, then press ok.
    - After that click the ^ and change it to 
    - You will then see many files. BE VERY VERY CAREFUL NOT TO DELETE IMPORTANT FILES!!!
    - Some files will have the word conduit or plugin and such, so try move all of them to the trash. Again, try not to delete important files and folders, if your not sure about some just leave them, but when i did it it was fairly clear which ones to trash. (i also went and deleted any of the apps i didnt think were great/trustworthy)
    - Once you feel that all the nasty files are gone you can reopen safari and hopefully everything will be back to normal!
    It seriously took me so long to figure this out and i'm so glad that i did, especially because there were not many articles on how to. Hope it works for you as well, if you have any questions or clarifications feel free to ask!

  • How do I get rid of myself and other users and just be working from the hard drive?

    Hi all,
    I know this sounds odd, but bear with me...
    I've just bought a new Macbook pro 10.7.4, as my loved old one died. At the store they tranferred all my old info to the new one, but my problem is this: Now I am a user on my computer and there are options for shared users. That sounds confusing, but on my old computer it was just me using it. No sign in or log in, and when I opened my finder window everything was just there in the one bucket (my hard drive): library, apllications, programs, etc. Now I open my finder window and find duplicates of things in all places( i.e. things on my hard drive are also (or not, maddeningly, such as library) there, and then they are also in users or shared.) It is only ever me using my computer, so I don't need all this extra clutter everywhere, or have to go searching for things in different places. Old system was like opening a drawer and finding all your posessions neatly arranged in there, in the one place. Now i feel as though I walk into a room filled with cupboards and things are in some drawers that are also in others, and duplicated.
    I apologise for my long rant, but I had to find a way to explain it!
    Basically, I want to get rid of other user or shared options on my mac, and myself as a user, and just have the one system staright off the hard drive, no other log ins, but still obviously retain my permissions (password etc) for making changes or installing. Is this possible?

    Well, you're going to have two Library folders - one for yourself and one for the System, but you can delete other users and you can enable automatic log-in for yourself using "Users and Groups" in System Preferences. No need to turn on Sharing or have any other users. You'll still need to make yourself an administrator, of course, but if you delete any other users, you delete their home folders, too.
