WHY DOES ask. com freeze?
In the past i have used ask,com, not any more as it freezes FF and closes any idea?
Win 7 64 b Toshiba top, and they are to be trust worthy sites
just installed 33.0, have no scripting and some other security items on board in FF

I run mbam weekly. Adwcleaner maybe once a month.
Adwcleaner does not install, but runs from the folder you saved it to.
Adwcleaner you have re-download each time as it does not have a updater in it.
It has gotten so bad that is whaat I now do to protect my computers.

So i had this junk and deleted it. Assuming a system image could have had that on it on an external hard drive, do i delete that image or?

You can if you wish. I would make a new image now while the junk is gone.
