Actually this seems pretty simple to remove without tools, check out this guide specific to DNS Unlocker. Basically you just uninstall the software then remove the browser add-ons it installed.

:siren:Never download any software from Sourceforge:siren:, it is a malware distribution site that hosts fake open-source projects with malware droppers bundled into the installers. SF used to be legit but in 2013 was acquired by Dice.com and turned into a malware distributor, this year they switched to creating fake projects with infected downloads for projects hosted on other sites.

I don't really have much feedback on cleanup if the tool's Zogo linked don't find anything, but once you get up and running again I would strongly recommend that you install the uBlock Origin add-on, it's available for Chrome and Firefox and blocks ads, malware, and other crap without the performance impact of other add-ons like AdBlock Plus. Since your browser never downloads or renders that content it will actually significantly improve performance. Definitely don't install Java or any Adobe software.
