Today I purchased a new desktop PC. I downloaded Chrome and signed in. My account carried over favorites, but weirdly I have a carryover of the Bing search bar and a Lavasoft search bar in two separate tabs when I access Chrome. What is going on here? Do I need to adjust my Browser settings? Also, my ABP popup block is acting the same as it did with the old PC. Can a virus/malware attach itself to a Chrome account and infect a new computer?

Thanks.

Update: So I simply went to Advanced Settings and reset Browser settings. No more Bing or Lavasoft.

Yay!

I think Google polices a bit for the malware browser extensions.
