Here you go, scroll down the page for Chrome instructions for removal.

It's not a virus, just a toolbar.

Any settings changed are easily changed back.

Flooded in, so thought I'd have a look on here.

waddler_8 linked to, AdwCleaner Download: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ a few weeks back.

I found that this cleared remnants of incredibar from a pc I was 'sorting'
