First of all I have removed BearShare from the accounts of all three users on my computer; next, as administrator I have set Firefox set as the default browser; still, when click on the firefox icon and firefox opens BearShare is the browser that comes up on the screen. It defies understanding yet there it is. I want to get rid of it. Ironically, the user who downloaded BearShare does not have it as her browser, nor does bearshare appear in any user's control panel. Help!

Thanks, Thomas
