O.P. Getting rid of toolbars
Hey.

Just wondering how you get rid of a toolbar (off your pc) Im talking IE toolbars.

I only want to use one thats the msn one. i have one that keeps coming back no matter how many times i uncheck it and its getting annoying and the others i just want removed because i dont use them so if someone could tell me how that would be great.

The toolbars are

Viewpoint Toolbar (The new msn one)
LOGDEFYLOCKS (the annoying one that keeps coming back)

and the rest i want so i dont need to post them..

RE: Getting rid of toolbars
Most toolbars can simply be uninstalled by uninstalling from add/remove programs. 99% of all the "annoying" toolbars (yes even the adware ones) are listed there....

If not, use anti-adware/spyware tools...

No, none of those are listed in the add/remove programs list. and ive used spybot s&d and ad aware neither detected the toolbars.

RE: Getting rid of toolbars
small note: often the uninstall programs are not named like the toolbars though. The toolbars are often a part of a bigger (adware) program which is named differently in the list...
