I just got the Conduit malware 4 days ago and I can't imagine I’m the only one. Any ideas why no one has posted regarding this issue since 2013?
On another note, is Norton somehow connected to Bing?  I’ve been working with a tech at Norton for three days and they haven't managed to get the Bing out of IE and bring back my original search engine. They did some fancy shuffle to make me think they had. In reality just redirect the Google browser to my original home page and said "look its working”.  The question is are they incompetent (doubtful) or have an interest in keeping Bing in IE.   I can't imagine what axe Norton has to grind here, unless someone was paying them or threating legal act.  Anyway As a result the Skype will not open, why that helps Microsoft I don't see it, since they own Skype.  Unless they are trying to drive customers to their (other) offering, like they are doing with Bing?

Hi, Windboater, and welcome to the Community,
Keep digging ... "Conduit" adds components that once found are easily removable.  I got slammed with this when I downloaded an old version of Skype from what turned out to be an untrustworthy website.  (Lesson learned: only download Skype from app store or Skype website.)  Was a time-consuming endeavor, but I prevailed.
Regards,
Elaine
