Zugo Bing homepage - not spyware/malware

Post by StanRich on Mon 08 Aug 2011, 4:18 pm

Greetings. So I accidentally downloaded the Zugo toolbar when doing some internet searches for related things and it changed my homepage to Bing. I was worried for a while because I have been reading bad things about it like it's malware/spyware or a virus. I did more research and realized that it is not these things, it's just annoying. I figured out the best way to uninstall the toolbar is using this link **SNIP**. You can go to Add/Remove Programs in your Control Panel too, just to be safe. Then just switch your homepage back to whatever you want.

Hope this helps people who had the same bad luck I did. It's not too bad though, so don't worry. Have a nice day.
