i am posting about this because i am getting SICK of this shit. 2 months ago i installed winzip (being the idiot that i am), it then apparently installed a rookit virus toolbar browser that screws with my chrome and makes it literally unusable. I was able to get rid of the one installed by winzip 2 months ago. Then, today i downloaded utorrent and winzip comes out of nowhere but this time installs a toolbar rookit virus with utorrent logos badly spammed all across it. How do i get rid of this problem, i am worried that if i reinstall chrome that the old toolbar will come back which is 100 times worse than the current one.

Ricksounds like a personal problem

i cannot uninstall the toolbar no matter what i do, it restricts me to using bing which is the real bummer for me, the only way i can use google is if i manually search google THROUGH bing which is as a one time thing not that bad but its a pain in the ass to do everytime

When you have a virus; reinstall your OS.

You should start reading a bit more and not pressing all the buttons that say 'Accept'. Try running Malwarebytes Antimalware to seek a possible infection, uninstall every program affected and/or go back using a restore point.
Also, why the fuck Winzip when u have 7zip or Winrar?

Back up important data, use CCleaner to write over the drive, reformat and reinstall a fresh copy of Windows.
