for some reason, a new "toolbar" opens on my taskbar
everytime I start WinXP ... when I right-click on the
taskbar and point to Toolbars, I see "Quick Launch,"
AND "Search Assistant" checked. I don't know where this
came from, as it certainly wasn't popping up prior to a
couple of weeks ago ... I can close it by unchecking the
item in the toolbar menu, but it shows up everytime I
reboot, and just takes up space on the taskbar. I can't
figure out where it came from or how to get rid of it or
at least turn it off...?

any suggestions will be much appreciated.

thanks,

paul

Type the command in RUN box.
Regsvr32 /u C:\Windows\System32\omniband.dll

Then, rename C:\Windows\System32\omniband.dll to old_omniband.dll and restart Windows.
