In an effort to resolve some issues I was having with my Zoom video recorder,I had to find a way to convert my QuickTime-based Zoom videos,because QT vids cannot be edited in my Windows-based video editing program.

This lead me to download a free video converter from CNET-which not only murdered the quality of my videos,but I was infected with a Bing homepage and it interfered with my e-mail as well! Angry

Bing has somehow inserted an additional search engine right in my e-mail inbox,which is displayed in my incoming messages and has replaced the content of every incoming e-mail that is sent to me....WTF??!! Angry

I searched through all of my programs in my Control Panel,but Bing is not listed there...so who knows were this little red menace is buried in my PC! Angry

I know this reads as preposterous,so here is the proof in this image below....

 Shocked
Thom,
so many of these download sites seem to have things like this attached to them. It is too sneaky  Angry

Check out this from a google search :

Good luck,
