Awhile ago, my grandson downloaded something to my computer that installed the Babylon search engine to my computer. It replaced the new page tabs. I have removed Babylon from my machine, at least everything I could find, but the new page tab still loads Babylon. Firefox has updated twice since then and it still happens. I have checked the plug ins, the add ons, the search preferences and can not find any mention of Babylon. Help please as I do not want this happening. I want the new page back that shows the pictures. How do I do this?

Chosen solution

See these pages about Babylon Toolbar:

Try to reset some preferences to the default with the SearchReset extension:

Note that the SearchReset extension only runs once and then uninstalls automatically, so it won't show on the about:addons page.
