HI,

It's a little off topic. i have problem with google chrome. It works perfectly fine until yesterday when I opened a new tab it brought up something called babylon search. Then i found babylon toolbar was installed while i did not install anything for months (only updated adobe flash player and java)
Now I can't to get rid of it and it seems like I'd have to do something more than a simple removal from the "Add/Remove program" option. It must have something to do with the registry, but I can not able to clean that. The other day someone in yahoo answers suggest a babylon search removal guide, it's here
it requires to download an antivirus not heard before, I just want to make sure everything won't go wrong again.
so is there a simpler way to remove this everyone hated toolbar? Please help!

http://www.malwarebytes.org/ is another decent tool for keeping your system clean of such things as babylon search

This.

 

If it doesn't find anything malicious then your case is easier and you'll just have to uninstall the toolbar and reset your browser's settings.

 

Babylon is nothing, believe me, I've been infected with so much worse search bars that I rather qualify as pure viruses.

    • "you cannot skip ads on Live TV" 1. You can leave the room to get something to eat or leave the room to expel the remains of what you ate. 2. You can use "mute" during ads on TV. Drug commericals on TV are particulary onerous when you consider that many FDA approved drugs advertised on TV have a high "kill rate." "Big Pharma" has a lot more influence with politicians than "Big Tobacco" does.
    • I think most players picked Black Flag if any AC was to be remastered + there's a new gen of buyers.
    • In most cases SE is an upgrade. Here it’s a downgrade. #stupidhardwareprices
    • SE sounds like "Special/Second Edition", better than the original. WTF is Nvidia marketing doing?!
    • Nvidia might soon launch RTX 5090 "SE" with a lot less performance and VRAM by Sayan Sen For quite a while, Nvidia was expected to be working on an RTX 5000 SUPER series as a step up from the vanilla 50 series that is currently headlined by the RTX 5090. There were even rumored specs that leaked, though evidently, none of that has materialized. However, it finally looks like Nvidia may make a move and launch a new card, according to a new report. Surprisingly, perhaps, this is not related to the SUPER series at all, and instead, Team Green could be bringing a new RTX 5090 "SE" model instead. The news comes from Russian outlet GameGPU, which claims that this will be a highly chopped-down variant of the 5090. How much, you ask? According to the report, there may only be 14,080 CUDA cores or a total of 110 SMs (streaming multiprocessors). In comparison, the RTX 5090 has 21,760 CUDA cores or 170 SMs, respectively. Aside from the core configuration, the memory subsystem is also said to go down from a 512-bit width to a 384-bit interface. Thus, the memory capacity will see a reduction down to 24GB on the SE versus 32GB on the full 5090. Here is how the alleged RTX 5090 SE will compare spec-wise to the 5090, 5080, and 5070 Ti: RTX 5090 RTX 5090 SE RTX 5080 RTX 5070 Ti Architecture Blackwell Blackwell Blackwell Blackwell CUDA Cores 21,760 14,080 10,752 8,960 Tensor Cores 5th Gen (3352 TOPS) 5th Gen (NA) 5th Gen (1801 TOPS) 5th Gen (1406 TOPS) RT Cores 4th Gen (318 TFLOPS) 4th Gen (NA) 4th Gen (171 TFLOPS) 4th Gen (133 TFLOPS) Boost Clock 2.41 GHz NA 2.62 GHz 2.45 GHz Base Clock 2.01 GHz NA 2.30 GHz 2.30 GHz Memory 32 GB GDDR7 24 GB GDDR7 16 GB GDDR7 16 GB GDDR7 Memory Interface 512-bit 384-bit 256-bit 256-bit Memory Bandwidth 1792 GB/s NA 960 GB/s 896 GB/s Thus, in terms of performance, the RTX 5090 SE could be right in the middle of the 5090 and the 5080. If the report is indeed true, we will have to see how Nvidia prices this thing, especially in these current times where hardware prices are very high. Source: GameGPU
