Computer problems can make one uncomfortable
'Delta Search' is a program that offers a web search engine and toolbar which are being promoted via other free programs, and once installed on your computer, they will hijack your browser homepage and replace your default search engine.

There are websites which have suggested downloading of programs to eliminate or prevent 'Delta Search'. I can't assure you of how good these programs are but I can tell you how dangerous it is to load unfamiliar programs onto the computer.
Below are the recommended tips on how to remove 'Delta Search' from your computer manually. I followed these instructions after mistakenly downloading a program and it worked on Windows 7, but you can try on other windows.
First of all, uninstall the installed program which came along with 'Delta Search' from the programs at the control panel. After uninstalling if the problem still exists, it means there are hidden traces of the program somewhere. Follow the instructions below to get rid of it completely.

After that follows five boxes
1. Suggest searches as you typed
2. Store search history on my computer
