ask.com came as part of a game download. when i click on the mozilla icon i get ask.com as a search engine. For my purpose it is unusable. i deleted ask.com from my program files yet it still appears to be active. How do i eliminate it?

see [Problematic extensions - MozillaZine Knowledge Base] -- for removal look for ask.com and the directions are in the 4th column.
