Internet Explorer 8 toolbar

S

Summer1

I have three toolbars installed on IE 8:

1. AVG (below the address box)-I know I have to remove delete program and
reinstall without toolbar
2.Google (below the address box)-'Wrench' icon, 'uninstall'
3. 'Another' toolbar to the right of the address box with a magnifying glass
beside it and options for 'Live Search-default,' 'Find on this page,' 'Find
more providers' and 'Manage search providers.'

What is the 3rd toolbar, did it come 'with' IE 8, and am I able to uninstall
it? If so, how do I uninstall it?

The 3rd toolbar comes with IE7/8
You cannot uninstall it, though you can add more search providers or
remove ones you have.

For more information, please try the IE7/IE8 group.
The recommended newsgroup is microsoft.public.internetexplorer.general

In a proper newsreader:

Which 'search providers' does the IE8 toolbar come with?

I'm assuming that I can add as many as I want but I have to 'change' to
'default' each time I want to use a particular search engine.

The'Bing' and' Live Search' search engines are exactly the same (Bing) so why
would someone add the both?

It probably comes with what you see if you have not added any.
Probably Google,Bing,Live Search, Yahoo

No, you don't have to change the default each time, you can use any
you have showing.
