The "search assistant" appeared on my taskbar and I'd
like to turn it off as it just gets in the way. I've
right clicked on the taskbar and unchecked it, but it
reappears every time I restart the computer. Any
permanent solution to this annoyance? Thanks
 
Which toolbar is it (i.e. the manufacturer)? Sometimes these types of apps
will provide an option to turn them off permanently.

In lieu of a better solution, you can just run a spyware cleaner; some of
