there should be "options" on the toolbar somewhere...and then their site somwehere too or just "uninstall" on a drop down window, it'll direct you to the uninstall site

Did you try with Spybot - Seek and destroy?

Right click your Task Bar > Select Toolbars > Uncheck the options in the menu and add the ones that you want back.

While that is true, the user has already tried using Spyware removal tools. The application cannot removing something that is in use. So if you hide it then you can try and remove it.
