Fuck OFF Toolbars



This "Lets Search" tool bar is pissing me off, how the hell do you get rid of it. You can right click and click away the "IE Toolbar" but next time the browser loads, it's right back up there.

I checked msconfig, checked the registry, checked downloaded program files, add/remove programs. Where the hell does this little bugger load from?

See google with the down arrow in the left hand corner. Click that, straight to the bottom of the list. Uninstall.

Just started randomly deleting shit from "toolbar" search returns in the registry and they're gone, don't think I got rid of anything too important.

I'm not talking about the google bar, I keep that around for PR purposes. I'm talking about the obnoxious bastard right above it, called the "IE Toolbar" is this really built into IE / Windows and is a MSFT product?

Another annoyance is http://www.swimsuitnetwork.com/ popup dialers. I'm know this is software installed somewhere cause it'll popup randomly when I load just google.com (doesn't use popup advertising). Any recommendations on hunting this down?

try VIEW and TOOLBARS and you should be fine when you uncheck some of those options

Go to your Downloaded Program Files directory.

Find it on the list. Right click, remove. Simple.

... yes, this is a nasty one ... check if it is in your software setup

start -> control panel -> software

... try to uninstall from there.

if this fails you can always try to find it in your registry and delete it from there, pretty much the best to do anyway:

start -> run -> c:\windows\regedit.exe

... and yes, you can always format:c
