I have a search tool bar on IE that is filled with pop-up
junk i.e. porn, that I can't delete. How do I do this?
I also delete this stuff that I find in my favorites, but
when I come back to IE i find it all back. What Gives?
 
Ralph,
ToolbarCop from http://www.mvps.org/sramesh2k/ should be able to remove the
toolbar. But you probably have other adware, spyware, parasites on your
computer.

Download, install, *update* and run these two programs:
Ad-aware from http://www.lavasoft.de/software/adaware/
Spybot from http://security.kolla.de/
