Removing Imesh from navigation tool bar

Aug 7, 2011 4:59AM PDT

I can't seem to get rid of imesh as my default search engine. I have removed it from my computer, removed the toolbar, removed it as an add-on, even tried configuring google as my default search engine under about:config on Mozilla Firefox. However, whenever I try to do a search using the address bar its trying to search using imesh which I don't want. So, I end up having to use the search bar instead, which sucks. Any suggestions?

Imesh is a P2P file sharing application.

Have you tried uninstalling it?

As I mentioned in my original post, I removed Imesh from my computer through the Control Panel, I deleted the Imesh add-on, also removed the Imesh from my search engine tool bar, however whenever I try to do a search as I usually do using the address bar, it pulls up Search:Imesh.
