Delete unwanted bar from IE?

[Guest LMO]

Aloha all. Ask Me.com has put a search window on my IE toolbar. I don't want

it, but can see no way to delete it. Right-click does not mention it. Help?

Control Panel --> Add or Remove Programs... See if it is listed there.

 

IE6 or IE7?

 

View --> Toolbars --> if it is listed and checked, click on it to uncheck

it.

LMO,

 

Remove it like Shenan says via add/remove programs but make sure all Internet

Explorer windows are closed first. Plus, a reboot is 'sometimes' necessary too

A bit of overkill for this problem, but another useful application for

removing crap from the toolbar is ToolBar Cop. Go to this link - it is free.

Hope this helps.

Hello,

 

If you are unable to remove it, Start IE. Tools > Manage Add-Ons and disable

the toolbar there.

Although in a different location.

 

In IE 6 SP2 it's at Tools > Internet Options, Programs tab

 

In that Programs tab is the "Manage Add-ons..." button

Hello,

 

No, the link "Manage Add-ons" does exist under the tools menu in IE6-SP2.

Yep, you're right. It's in two spots in IE6 SP2.

 

Thanks for the update :-)
