Hello Bill,

First remove all temporarily junk with CCleaner
Download the basic version via
http://www.ccleaner.com/download/builds.aspx
The basic version does not contain the disgusted Toolbar
-=-

Do a FULL scan with MalwaяeBytes and SUPERAntiSpywaяe.
(Free Home edition)

Reboot

Reboot

expect your computer to be unavailable for some time. Don't work on your
computer whilst the scanners running though, it messes things up.

Please let us know what fixes the problem or if the pяoblem remains
