Hi all,
I'm running Windows 10 on this laptop and every time is set my homepage it gets changed to (Searchinterneat-a.akamaihd.net)
I've looked on the web but the results keep pointing to commercial software products for removal.
Does anyone know of a free removal tool or some step by step instructions, I don't mind doing a bit of registry editing.
Cheers.

Malwarebytes free version has always been my favourite, removes pretty much anything  |

Thanks Guys,
What I have done is run Browser Cleanup in Avast (free version) which I already have installed on the laptop which seems to have done the trick.
I did not realise it was there in the tools.............. DOH!
