    Recently discovered Babylon Browser is a Browser Hijacker. Used it a few times on Internet Explorer and Google Chrome before realizing it was a Browser Hijacker. Then I uninstalled Google Chrome (stopped using it all-together). My anti virus software wasn't able to detect Babylon Browser infecting my computer with malware. On the other hand, AV (anti virus) informed me of iSearch Claro browser hijacker infecting my computer. Hopefully, Babylon Browser hasn't infected my computer since it hasn't been detected by my AV.

    Has Babylon Browser infected my computer even though my AV hasn't detected any signs of its infection? If my AV was able to detect the infection of iSearch Claro as soon as it was activated, then hopefully it should also be able to that with Babylon Browser.

    What should I do?

    Have you an image which you can restore that puts you back prior to installation.
    Sorry if not much help.
