I've asked for help with this problem before and forgot how to fix it
it started again after I just got my computer from a 10-day repair job
When I open the texasdownlow forum page, I get a Topic Torch (Releated searches) Add bar on the left side of the page.
I checked the add on and extension tab under tools but couldn't find it
Any help would be appreciated-This is very annoying
Thanks
Mike

Try the steps here. It's similar to a virus, from what I read.

I've used "Malwarebytes", which is the 4th step on the page LHPM posted a link to, for a few years with great success. I'd almost be willing to bet the Free Version works on it's own.
Here's the link....

What is your operating system? windows xp, windows 7 ?

it's a pretty easy procedure to remove it manually, takes just a few minutes to remove it from your registry.
