Remove Searchme Toolbar

This is an ad/search supported web browser toolbar/extension that runs in Internet Explorer, Chrome and Firefox that utilizes a custom branded Spigot toolbar. It will modify the browser's home page and search settings using Spigot's search engine and its partner's search portals. It will also read and interpret the user's search requests and results on certain sites and use this information to conduct searches as well as offer alternative results and to personalize The Toolbar.

According the the EULA, you agree to: "modify your Microsoft Internet Explorer and/or Mozilla Firefox browser settings for the default search engine, address bar search, "DNS error" page, "404 error" page, and new tab page to facilitate more informative responses as determined by The Toolbar; communicate with Spigot servers from time to time to check for available software updates such as bug fixes, patches, enhanced functions and new versions (collectively, "Updates")."
