    You have PUPs, potentially unwanted programs. Download and run AdwCleaner, junkware removal tool and Malwarebytes Antimalware.

    Malwarebytes or Hitmanpro should do the trick, make sure you download them from the official sites and do not click on any ads on the download page.

    Sometimes removing them from the programs isn't enough, there could be files leftover.

    Conduit is Malware and I got it off CNET. Neither Malwarebytes or Hitman Pro could get rid of it. I had it on both Firefox and IE. I deleted Firefox and all associated files and cleared that up. As for IE it is still there so I disabled IE and live with it.
