Help with removing urlsleek.vmn.net search toolbar
Hey DangerNerd just replying to ask for help for urlsleek20. The spy ware is really bugging me because as it states it blocks websites such as you tube which bugs me a lot because I have to get back on and on...over and over until something.
Here's my question, I can't find the search settings to remove on the add/remove programs. I've checked and the only thing I see is search toolbar and that's it with the name search.
My computer is Microsoft XP.

Hi there,
Before you do ANYTHING else, create a restore point. Some of these guys don't go peacefully.
First thing to try is doing it the way they want it done:
"How do I remove or uninstall the VMN toolbar?
You may remove the toolbar at anytime.
From the preferences menu on the right side of the toolbar:
- Click on 'Uninstall'.
- Or use "Add or Remove Programs" from Windows Control Panel to remove the VMN Toolbar."
... From my experience, they usually use various names to make it harder to spot in the list. Your "Search Toolbar" is probably it.
I would uninstall that. In fact I would remove anything with the word toolbar in it if you don't know what it is.
I would then download and run:
SuperAntiSpyware:

...and: MalwareBaytes:
[Link](Mouse over link to see full location)
Between the two of these, they will take care of most anything. Not everything, but the vast majority of spyware and malware out there.
Good luck!
P.S. Two more things: Install all currently available updates for Windows and IE. Then stop using IE for a browser if you still are.
