How do I disable the default Search Companion for Windows
XP in Internet Explorer 6.0?
Every time I open my browser the search companion comes
up on the left side of the screen.
If I close it out it comes back up when I log on again.
Any help would be appreicatted.
Thanks,
Al

Is it something you installed? If not.
