Seached on the web on how to remove this myway followed yhe instructions and BINGO back to norm. Thanks for all the help.
Although this may seem a legitimate and useful browser plug-in, be aware that My Way is categorized as a browser hijacker or virus. The correct way to uninstall an unwanted program is to:
Click Start (Windows Logo at the bottom left corner of your desktop), choose Control Panel. Locate Programs and click Uninstall a program. And then find the program from the list and uninstall it.
If you want to get rid of it quickly and completely, you are suggested to use a reliable removal tool with such a problem.
