How do I get rid of Yahoo toolbar?
I have uninstalled it from the add/remove programs but it still shows up in Firefox.

But it keeps coming back. What a giant pain it is.

1. Until you're able to finally decimate it, right-click on it and turn it off.
It's infected all the computers at work, and it drives me up a freaking wall. I hate that thing.

2. There is an uninstall option in the toolbar itself
The pencil icon has a listing for unistall.

I installed CCleaner and it wanted to put in Yahoo toolbar. Almost everything I download has it, although I never choose to install it. my computer is cluttered enough.

4. I might shoot my computer
It's been really slow lately but I can't find the reason: no spyware, no viruses. To top it all off, Firefox ate my bookmarks. Or half of them anyway. Weird.
