in Techie Stuff
Been invaded by this, and it's resisting all my attempts to uninstall it.
Ist of all delta-search.com was installed as my default browser, couldn't shift it even after it appeared to have gone from my programme list.
Changed it manually back to my default home page and it wouldn't accept it, eventually the computer crashed and after about 15 mins self check it opened up again.
Now, delta search doesn't appear, have managed to re establish my own home page, but cannot remove Browser defender.
When I select it to uninstall it just stays put.
Run malwarebytes, kaspersky pure and windows defender with no result other than KP picked up two invaders yesterday, which was the date these 2 programmes were installed.
Followed several approaches from googling it but still there lurking.
Any ideas without getting too techy, I have limited knowledge of this stuff but want it gone.

So why when I look at it and start to download do I get all manner of spurious other stuff thrust at me, sorry, I'm a disbeliever,:D:D or is that just a sceptic, simply don't want to make another wrong click.I like the thanks button, but ,please, an I agree button.
