Toolbar madness, please help!!!
 
I've somehow installed an annoying IE toolbar and I can't get rid of it :spin:

The two attached images are screenshots, 1 is the bar alone the 2nd is the menu option name.

I've tried to simply click on the menu, the one highlighted, and it does disappear..but a few mins later something is triggered and back up it pops! :mad:

Can anyone prod me into the right direction to get rid of this annoying toolbar please?

have u looked in add/remove programs for the program?

Apologies if I'm stating the obvious but have you tried running anti-spyware software? Failing that, have a look in Program Files for anything which could relate to it, and don't forget good old MSCONFIG :)

Have you installed the latest MSN Messenger?
I seem to think that my daughter got this problem after she installed latest MSN Messenger.
Try looking in task manager to see if anything strange is running, then do a Google search on it. Seemed to think that there is a solution but have forgotten what it is!

You installed any P2P's?

yeah i got one when I installed msn plus, however when I formatted and re-installed i remembered to take the tick out of the option and it all went away.

Is there anyway to remove it without formatting the pc? I have just got everything running nice and steady and I don't want to wipe the system, I'd rather live with it than format.

Matthew 31-08-2003 23:53

I've just tried adaware and it has not got rid of it. I updated it so it would pick out new things but nothing. Help.

Sorted it. Just uninstalled MSN Plus (I did not read the above very well) and reinstalled and I am sorted. Thanks
