Post F*****G Text Enhance!
Text enhance is pissing me the hell off right now. Its invaded my Chrome installation. Endless Google searches have yielded no results. There's no text enhance extension and the opt out page is a huge joke. I need help from the DRL community. Help me eliminate text enhance from my system!

EDIT: I guess I should make it clear, Text Enhance is that malaware that highlights random words on web pages and loads a popup when you scroll over them without your mouse pointer.

I'm guessing you've already tried this from your rage: http://botcrawl.com/how-to-remove-text-enhance/
There's this too, but you've probably already tried it: http://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/chrome/_UkMuA-jJ5Y
If it's actual malware, I suggest Malwarebytes. PC Decrapifier MIGHT be worth a look as well, but since it sounds like just a problem with Chrome that probably wouldn't work.
If that all fails, maybe try uninstalling and reinstalling Chrome?

Or for a truly last resort, Combofix

Only use that as a LAST resort however. I've seen it clean out heavily infected machines with no trouble, or make them never boot again.

The second link did it. After actually signing in to google and reading that page it was an easy fix! Thanks for the quick reply and the helpful information!
