ping-pong2012 Posted July 1, 2012 Report Share Posted July 1, 2012 So besides uTorrent previously scanning for programs and advertising what I have installed, now it installs Conduit, which has completely hijacked all of my browser searches.I uninstalled the toolbar.Cleared all about:config entries with conduit in themCleared the registry of Conduit traces.Made sure no foreign programs were running.Even uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox.THIS CONDUIT HIJACKING IS BS. I hope you and them get sued for hijacking search references with no regard as to how to remove the redirects. The only thing I can hope for is someone figures out if it's a .dll or something which keeps Conduit active.If Conduit didn't clearly relabel the homepage as Conduit I probably wouldn't have even figured out what was making pretty much every web page hang for 10+ seconds, as even sites which use Google Analytics are hijacked.I even checked my hosts file, if it's a rootkit I hope someone involves international laws.
