When I activate AdBlock I also end up with a new search engine called mystartsearch...which I do not want! How can I stop this happening?

    Hi Shelley,

    The official version of AdBlock does not come with any search engines. Make sure that you're installing it from our website at getadblock.com and not somewhere else.

    It looks like MyStartSearch is malware, so we recommend installing a malware removal tool.
