Just upgraded Firefox and all of a sudden the homepage is set to http://search.jzip.com/. It will not change. I have done a regedit and found jzip and removed it there. Also removed it from the programs list. My daughter downloaded it as a free zip program. I prefer to have my homepage my business but can not change it. I have gone to remove addons and set it to use default search engines, default, tool bars, etc and still the damn thing is there. I uninstalled Firefox, rebooted and downloaded and installed again and the damn thing is still there. Where in the heck is it hiding?

Thanks Tony

I succesfully remove this owful homepage using this procedure (posted in https://support.mozilla.com/ru/questions/805889#answer-161093)

You have to do the following:

  1. go to C:/Program Files (86) /Windows jZip Toolbar
  2. in the folder there is a uninstall file for the toolbar execute it
  3. delete the folder if still exists
  4. open Firefox and type in the address bar "about:config"
  5. say you will be careful
  6. type “jzip” in the filter bar
  7. "reinitialize" (right click on and then reset) all the values with "jzip" that are shown
  8. close Firefox and restart => no more jzip startup page

bye

otherwise just uninstall the jzip program entirely from your start control panel - there's often a catch with free software. I tried it, checked no home page, toolbar, etc on the installer program, and it still commandeered my default browser. I figure who knows what else it's doing. Not a good program to download.
