I've accidentaly installed babylon toolbar on my system. now I've uninstalled the toolbar and deleted all the registry values that contained babylon. But when I open my Firefox, babylon modifies the newtab and searchengine strings so that babylon is the page to open in a new tab.. I've resetted the values in about:config several times and I've also re-installed firefox (with deleting everything). Do you have any solution for this problem? Also, I have an addon called "Browser Protect", which I'm unable to delete.

Best regards, Mathieu Blauw

Yes, I did everything from there and all the other post about babylon I found. Nothing seems to work. Would it help to install babylon again and try to deïnstall? Maybe I did it the wrong way and is that why it is not working correct at the moment?

If you do not keep changes after a restart then see:

You can check for problems with preferences and try to rename or delete the prefs.js file and possible numbered prefs-##.js files and a possible user.js file to reset all prefs to the default values.
