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.

Some websites have suggested downloading 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 it on other Windows.
First of all, uninstall the installed program that came along with 'Delta Search' from the programs in 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.

Click the toolbar at the top right corner of the computer (Toolbar sign is a small spanner)
A box opens with toolbar options
Under Search Features, you will see
Use Google site: Choose preferred language browser by country
After that, follow the five boxes
1. Suggest searches as you type
2. Store search history on my computer
3. Use Google as my homepage
4. Set and keep Google as the default search engine
5. Show a notification if this setting changes
6. Show highlighted text in the search box
Make sure that all the small boxes are ticked. Finally, save it to effect the changes. The Delta search quickly disappears, and the Google homepage takes its place.
