Downloaded the infamous ilivid program that came with searchqu and searchnu.  It's hijacked my browser and I can't get rid of it.  Got this from CNET because I thought I could trust them.  Guess not.   Thought I got rid of the things above, but when I try

to open IE, it gets redirected to searchnu.com/406 even though I change it every 5 minutes to google in Internet options,  It changes back.  Also whenever I pull up a new program, within 5 seconds, the manage add-ons window pops up and stops me.  Annoying

is not the right word.  Any help?
