    Windows Defender is already installed in Win8.

    As I stated before, Defender is already built-in. You don't need to download it.

    Norton Internet Security (NIS) is kind of a resource hog. You can use the removal tool to get rid of it.

    Good luck with the restore.

    Ok guys. I got Norton uninstalled, got the win defender turned on and classic shell installed. It seems to be the hateful Norton that would not let things install. I have not done the factory reset because it seems to be working fine. I ran malware bytes and it did not show anything, no objects were found. That being said the Delta-Search is still there. I cannot find it anywhere, but it pops up as the default search engine.

    So what should I do for that? Try system restore again?

    Ok I went thru the process of uninstalling anything related to the Delta junk. Going to scan malwarebytes and post log in ICU.

    Thank you very much for the help.

    At least you were able to get Malwarebytes installed. Hopefully Broni can help clean up your system. He's the resident malware expert.

    There was nothing in the malwarebytes log. It says no infections found. So do I still need to post it?
