Well, I don't know if I'm in the right place or not, but
I'll post anyway and see what happens...
Believe it or not, I'm a brand new computer user! Have
Microsoft Internet Explorer. Been playing w/ the
internet, etc., and SOMEHOW during all my playing, 3
extra 'toolbars' have been placed on my screen. Actually
I'm not even sure that's what you call them. At the very
top, I have the 'bar' that has 'File', 'Edit', etc. Next
bar has things like 'refresh', etc. Then there's
the 'address' bar. Somehow under that, I have 3 more
bars, "mywebsearch', 'iwon' and 'mysearch'---and I want to
get rid of them. I can find out how to HIDE them, but I
want them deleted, and don't know how. Can anyone advise
me? My e-mail is (e-mail address removed). Again, I'm
fairly new at this, so any instructions will have to be
kinda specific. Thanks!!!

Hi Gary,

Get ToolbarCop:
http://www.mvps.org/sramesh2k/utils/ToolbarCop.exe

ToolbarCop removes the Toolbars, Toolbar buttons and unwanted
menu-extensions from Internet Explorer. It does not remove the spyware from
the system entirely. It is advisable to run Ad-Aware scan
(www.lavasoftusa.com), if the toolbar entries are not removed.
