I've noticed my PC has been chuggin' along rather slow lately. I ran Microsoft Defender and it found ZangoSearchAssistant. I removed it, followed the instructions on deleting registrey keys. Even though I did all that, when I ran it again, it found the same zangosearchassistant on the pc! I ran Adware and Norton, which did not find it. Any idea on how to get rid of this thing? I've ran the Defender four times and each time it has found it after I remove it. And my PC is still rather slow than normal.
Hopefully my advice will help you...Please post back with your results....thanks

Thank you for your help. I ran the xscan, it removed two things and although neither of them were zango, i reran Windows Defender and it didn't show up. Thanks!
