Get rid of Babylon Toolbar (Removal Instructions)

This toolbar is ad-ware comes with various free tools. Babylon toolbar set your home page to Babylon URL and always redirect to their own search instead of user desired search engine. It also post adds and disturbs general user routine. Also it steals user bandwidth and generates unintended traffic to various other websites without users knowledge. I recommend two easy steps to get rid from Babylon.
1. Go to add remove program feature, and uninstall Babylon toolbar from the computer.
2. Then goto -> Run command, and Type “Regedit” and press enter. Then go to “View”-> press “Find”, then Type “Babylon”, and delete all the entries it finds about Babylon. Then close it and again open Browser.Now at this point you can see again Babylon has changed your general URL to its own one. Now go to registry editor again and search for “Babylon”. Once you found it (Usually general URL), change the value to http://www.google.com or your desired home page.
This will remove Babylon redirection. If you need to remove this completely I recommend to  Download  “Malwarebytes Anti-Malware FREE”, Scan system and remove all the malware.
