Hi,
Go to: http://www.angelfire.com/dragon/sramesh2k/ for Toolbar Cop.
If unsuccessful with Toolbar Cop, the manual way:
With IE NOT open, run regedit and make your way to this key
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Toolbar\]
Export that key (Registry> Export) then delete the offending sub-key
representing your unwanted toolbar.

Ad-aware 6 from http://www.lavasoft.de/software/adaware/ may be able to help
with this, and should be run, at any rate, to check for other adware,
spyware, parasites.

See: http://mvps.org/winhelp2002/restricted.htm#Setting for recommended
security settings.

Regards,
Don
 
First option is to run Ad-Aware scan (www.lavasoftusa.com). If the toolbar
entries are not removed still,

ToolbarCop:
http://www.angelfire.com/dragon/sramesh2k/utils/ToolbarCop.exe

Manual Procedure:
Start Registry Editor (Regedit.exe)
Go to the following location and check each GUID sub-key. One of which is
the malware toolbar entry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Extensions

Also, check here:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Extensions
{check the values in the right-pane to identify the malware toolbar.)

Spot the entry and delete the appropriate key (backup the registry first)
