I am asking our community to get proven experience of how to remove "dalesearch" AdWare from my PC. I uninstalled it from applications, reset home page from browser, but it appear again as home page in my browser (FireFox) and there is nothing in add-ons> extensions or plugin, so that please help me if such experience exist.

If the updates and a restart fixed the problem, please post it as an answer and accept it. Any other input to this question will probably be speculation. – Tog Oct 18 '13 at 09:18

AdwCleaner is a program that searches for and deletes Adware, Toolbars, Potentially Unwanted Programs (PUP), and browser Hijackers from your computer. The types of programs that AdwCleaner targets are typically bundled with free programs that you download from the web.
I have used it to delete such annoyances in the past, where other programs have failed. It may help you in removing dalesearch.

- I uninstalled it from Applications
- Resettled home page from browser options. It helps only after PC was restarted (because of new installed Win. Updates)
