Hi all
I have been directed here from PC advisor form as I have problems with Iwantsearchbar, and have been unable to get rid of them

For a couple of months now superantispyware and Malwarebytes has shown my PC to be infected by "Iwantsearchbar" after scan is completed both software says you must reboot , I do and it says removal was carried out sucssfully, but every time I run scans the same thing shows up again.

I emailed superantisryware and they said just allow it, as it is not dangerous, but I would like to see it gone.
I did Google it but all of the posts i found were from 2004 and links did not work.

There are no SBSoft entries in add/remove.

Im not very techie but I really need to get rid of these so any help welcome
Can anyone help please
