It can be tough to get rid of. Tap F8 when you are booting, select "Safe Mode With Networking". Download and install Malwarebytes and Superantispyware (Note: If you can't do the download on your machine, do it on a friend's, put them on a thumb drive, and install them from it). Then scan your computer with each program, and quarantine anything found. To keep it from coming back, I recommend you get the paid version of Malwarebytes.

I inadvertently hit the yes button to download ask onto my computer instead of no. I followed that screw up by dragging the Ask Icon to the recycle bin and removing it. The problem is I didn't uninstall...

  1. Click on the startbutton
  2. Click on computer
  3. In the top bar it should say something along the lines of "uninstall or change a program", click that
  4. You will now get a full list of all the programs installed on your computer
  5. Look for the Ask.com software and select it
  6. Click "uninstall" (this is located just above the list of programs)
  7. Follow the steps from the uninstaller
You can use the above steps to uninstall any unwanted software programs.

Hope this was useful for you!

I want to get rid of "ASK" and set Google as my hopmepage

Here's how you can get rid of ASK toolbar and set Google as you homepage:
    1.To uninstall Ask Toolbar program from Windows XP, Windows Vista or Windows 7, click the "Start" button, then click on the "Control Panel" menu option.
    If you are using Windows 8, simply drag your mouse pointer to the right edge of the screen, select Search from the list and search for "control panel" .Or you can right-click on a bottom left hot corner (formerly known as the Start button) and select Control Panel from there.
    2.When the "Control Panel" window opens click on the "Uninstall a program" option under "Programs" category. This option is shown by the arrow in the image below. If you are using the "Classic View" of the Control Panel, then you would double-click on the "Programs and Features" icon instead.
    3.When the "Programs and Features" or the "Uninstall a Program" screen is displayed, scroll through the list of currently installed programs and uninstall Ask Toolbar, Ask Toolbar Updater, Ask Updater and any other recently installed or unknown programs from your computer. That should uninstall Ask toolbar from your computer. You'll also need to remove extensions from your browsers. Refer to this article which gives detailed instructions on how you can remove Ask toolbar from your browser as well as what to do if you can't remove it:
    http://malwaretips.com/blogs/remove-ask-toolbar-and-search/
    For setting Google as home page, once Ask toolbar has been removed, just open your browser and paste this link in the address bar:
    http://www.google.com/homepage/

    It'll automatically detect the browser you're using and give you instructions on how to set Google as your homepage.

Remove "ask" toolbar

There are two ways to remove the ask.com toolbar from your browser.
1.) On the left-hand side of the toolbar, there is an X which you can click on which will prompt the toolbar to ask you if you're sure you want to do this. Select the affirmative and it should be removed from your browser, however, you'll still have the actual program (it technically IS a progam, though it's an add-n of sorts).
2.) You can uninstall it by going to Add/Remove Programs in Windows XP or by removing it from the Programs and Features list in Vista/Win7. You can get to either of these by clicking Start/Control Panel/ [Add/Remove Programs OR Programs and Features]. Just click on the "ask toolbar" in the list and then click Remove.
If this helps you, please help me by leaving a great rating. I very much appreciate it!

Each time I clik on my internet browse ask come on my screen and will not allow me into my programs how do i delete ask as i do not want it it just showed up on my pc and i do not know why

HI, You can simply uninstall the program "Ask Toolbar" from Add/Remove Programs in Control Panel (for Windows XP) or Programs and Features in Control Panel (Windows Vista and Windows 7). This will certainly solve your issue. If you still happen to get the pop-up, you can open Internet Options from Control Panel and click on Programs Tab. Click on Manage Add-ons and disable Ask Toolbar from the list and restart your internet browser. Hope the solution works for you.
Cheers!
