Hey
These do indeed sound like an adware of some sort. I’m surprised they aren’t showing up in a Webroot scan, but perhaps they are not malicious enough to do so. You’re sure you don’t have them listed in your chrome extensions? Go to your preferences in chrome and double check to make sure you don’t have anything listed in your settings that looks like an add-on or downloaded search bar.
If that doesn’t turn up anything, you could try fully uninstalling chrome and reinstalling it.
Let me know if that works for you!
