Maybe this http://www.raymond.cc/blog/babylon-toolbar-adware-info-complete-removal/
or AdwCleaner :

(saw them mentioned recently in a thread at DSLR)

 

worked..thank you!

 

Relief - at last. ADWCLEANER did it for me.

 

Glad you were able to solve it, tomdy2k and AaLF

 

whoa!!!!!!!!!!

Shot my mouth off too early.

Its still there in the firefox tabs. Its not in that FF 'add-on' section. I've uninstalled it with Revo uninstaller & nuked it with JV16.

Pesky rascal's still there.

 

I don't know where I found this, but it was on some forum. WOT warns of a bad site, but I have not had a problem.

I had the problem of installing it without noticing, but was able to get rid of it.

AdwCleaner detected and removed toolbars and crapware leftovers where full and updated scans with eScan, Malwarebytes, HitmanPro and Spybot Portable failed to detect (folders, files and registry entries related to babylon, conduit, ask, and other stuff i don't known). In adiction is pretty fast (only took a few seconds) and offers a detailed report in a text file, after the reboot. Straight to my malware removal toolkit

 

For the record, I see that two scanners at VirusTotal are giving a warning on AdwCleaner:
TrendMicro-HouseCall - TROJ_GEN.F47V0814
Jiangmin - Worm/Sohanad.aim
For now I assume that those are false positives.

 

What did you install to get babylon to begin with,Just curious.

 

EVEN i am curious about the babylon search,a friend of mine had the same problem with babylon toolbar and search and tabs in firefox,said could not remember what he installed that did it.

seems to me babylon acts like a browser hijacker though.

 

AFAIK many AV's do detect and block the Babylon software as PUA/PUP, if that setting is checked in the AV.
