I downloaded Malwarebyte's Anti-Malware program from CNET Download, as it comes highly recommended. It identified MyWebSearch bar as infected but didn't remove it. At least it has highlighted the problem. Great stuff, thanks!

I managed to get rid of the tool bar but Mywebsearch still has control of my home page. Your instructions were easy to follow, however on looking in chrome there were no "m3ffxtbr.jar" or "m3ffxtbr.manifest" files ! Any other ideas? Ive tried all I can think of thus far. But thanks anyway. I too have tried loads of anti spyware progs. I managed to get rid of the tool bar but Mywebsearch still has control of my home page.
