I have tried everything to remove ask me. I prefer Google in the search engine and no matter what I do ask me keeps coming back

Which version of Windows are you using? I have one machine that I converted from Vista to Win7 that uses Google, one with Win7 pre-installed that I can choose between Bing and Google, and a desktop with XP that we changed to Bing.

If yours keeps coming back to a default, it may be from your ISP.

Hi, thisandthat2!

It might also be due to the browser that you're using.

What browser are you using, please?

Thanks!
