I have lost my homepage, Funmoods seem to have taken it over

Download a anti-malware program like Malwarebytes to prevent reinfection

http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_pro/

Then

Uninstall the application

Start > Control Panel > Add Remove programs
(or) Start -> Control Panel > Programs > uninstall a program
Click on the Funmoods Toolbar and click remove

Reset your Internet Explorer Settings:
In Internet explorer > Tools > Internet Options
General Tab > Under Home Page > Click Use Default
General Tab > Under Search > Settings > Select funmoods > Click remove

This guy did a nice little write up on removing "Fun Moods", if you need more information:

First download Revo Uninstaller and install it, then using it uninstall funmoods choosing advanced mode and delete all files and registry keys using built-in options.
After that change homepage for all your browsers using their settings menu. For firefox, go to addons menu and remove funmoods, similarly for chrome, go to extensions menu ad remove it.


Lastly, download malwarebytes anti-malware, update it and scan your pc for any residual adwares.
You are done!

Hi.

In the top right of your Google Chrome, press the icon that looks like 3 lines, then click "Settings".

This will open a page that has a few headings.

Scroll down to the heading labeled "Search"

Click the dropdown and change it from funmoods to "Google"

This should resolve your issue.

To remove funmoods from your computer, go to the Control Panel, then click on Programs and Features. Find funmoods Toolbar, click on it to reveal options, and then click Remove. It may be under another name. If that doesn't work, download Revo (the free version)http://www.revouninstaller.com/revo_uninstaller_free_download.html and see if that helps find and uninstall it any easier.


The problem is that most tools do not detect funmoods as there are several opinions regarding clasification of Funmoods. Lately, some vendors tried to add new detection techniques, so we would recommend using Spyhunter to get rid of funmoods.. Another good product to remove funmoods is MalwareBytes anti-malware.

• Open browser->Tools-> add-ons->Extensions->click on Remove button to remove funmoods.

• Then click on Restart now.

• Then go to Tools->Options->General tab->Restore to default->ok.

From google search ->select Manage Engine list->select name -> click on remove button.

This steps will help you to remove Funmoods permanently...(you can also run 'regedit' to delete from registry ).

What likely happened is that you installed a program that asked you if you wanted to install Funmoods with it already checked. A lot of internet apps pull that ****. What you need to do is the following

1. Go to Control Panel > Programs and Features, or Add/Remove Programs on older versions of Windows.
2. Find Funmoods and uninstall it.
3. In Chrome, click the wrench on the upper right hand side of the page and choose Settings.
4. You should be on the Basics page. Where it says Search, click the "Manage search engines" button.
5. You will see that Funmoods is the default. Hover over another search engine until you see "Make Default". Click it.
6. Hover over Funmoods. You will see an x on the right side. Click it in order to delete it.

You should be good after all this. Good luck.

go to google settings and then to On startup then to open specific set of page or pages then click the X at the end of the one you want to remove then restart google it should be gone. it worked for me :)
