    Angry getting rid of Babylon

     
    I have done a lot of reading and have tried several things, but can't seem to get rid of Babylon which seems to have atached itself to Firefox.
    1. I have gone to Add On Extensions and it is not listed.
    2. I have gone to options and changed the homepage to Google.
    3. Searched on Add/Delete programs-not listed.
    4. Used Spybot Search and Destroy and it lists it everytime and deletes it, but next session Babylon is still there.
    5. Ran Nortons, doesn't know it is there.
    6. Ran registry edit, not listed there.
    7. Ran Malewarebytes software, doesn't know it is there.
    8. Uninstalled Firefox from system, ran Spybot Seek and Destroy got rid of Bablyon. Shut down computer. Installed new version of Firefox. Second session Babylon reappears.

    I'm thoroughly disgusted with it. I have Internet Explorer but it runs so slow on my computer. Babylon hasn't attacked it-yet. I love Firefox and prefer to keep that as my browser. I'm not a tech head and need step by step what to do.
