ISearch toolbar removal help please

[Chris]

I was browsing the web one day and out of know where my
broswer obtained an ISearch toolbar. Now I never gave
consent to download and install it, it just appeared.
I've tried going to the Isearch website but theres nothing
there about removal of the toolbar or even any contact
information. So my question is how do I uninstal/remove
it?

Chris,
First, download, install, *update* and run Ad-aware from
http://www.lavasoft.de/software/adaware/ It has been removing isearch.

If isearch is removed but your IE toolbar is still locked, go to
http://www.mvps.org/sramesh2k/IEFAQ.htm > #32 Toolbars are locked.

If Ad-aware fails, try the uninstall instructions at
http://www.isearch.com/faq.php

With due apologies to Don Varnau -
Lavasoft's Ad-aware targets this pest.
Download and run Ad-aware as already prescribed.
