Spyware - search.conduit.com

search.conduit.com

Is it reasonable to hope that Avast can remove this nuisance from Windows 7/Internet Explorer or is this a job for the new browser cleanup tool and will this clear the nuisance from my system?

I'd suggest to use AdwCleaner. ;)

Probably not, since technically Conduit isn't malware.

This is a job for AdwCleaner or Junkware removal tool:

By the way, you can uninstall it manually, see this:

Or you could simply reset your web browser.

Cheers!
