Last couple days I've noticed an odd Wajam thing on my FF Google. Presumably something one of the kids has clicked on and changed ? or is it actually a new google thing (seems to link ad's to facebook / twitter recommendations ??) Just keeps showing me adverts for envelope suppliers.... bit odd, especially when I had searched bbc news lol.

How to remove / uninstall:
On Windows:

Here are two ways to remove Wajam from your computer using Windows.

Open the Chrome browser
Click the Tools menu"
Select Extensions

I'm glad I use an Opera browser ... seems like this only installs on IE, Firefox, Google Chrome etc....
