    The following free removal guide has been recommended in several posts in this thread: http://malwaretips.com/blogs/remove-iminent-toolbar/

    Follow steps 1 thru 4 and if your issue remains use HitMan Pro Trial Version as recommended in step 5.

    There are multiple solutions within this thread or you can start your own thread as suggested in the post of Bruce Hagen on October 1, 2014.

    Good luck...

    I've performed the removal process but everytime i boot up, i have 2 issues; 

    (1) Iminent is still in the registry so i have to go into regedit to remove it;

    (2) my internet options continue to default back to proxy and i have to reset it to "auto-detect".

    any help here?
