Someone added a line to the "TOOLS" menu-help fix!

Somehow, someone added a line to my IE 'Tools" drop down menu that reads
"Search (and then an address)" that when used, it send you to a mad pop-up
and activeX crazy site that also causes an immediate change in your homepage,
also adding a giant list of crazy junk to the "Favorites" list. How do I fix
this without having to re-install Internet Explorer? Any Ideas?

Use Regedit.exe and remove the item. It should be under here:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Extensions
