hi,
i have somehow acquired the isearch toolbar on my IE6.0
browser. i am unable to get rid of it as it has locked my
toolbar menu in the view menu of IE.
i have tried downloading and running spybot search &
destroy adware but this has failed to get rid of teh
toolbar.
can anyone please help me with advice on how to get rid
of this toolbar?
many thanks guys,
rashmi. xx
 
Has anybody had any luck confronting the jerks that are responsible
for this? Clearly, this is "hacking" - especially by today's new
standards, this may even be a kind of "terrorism"! I've looked inside
toolbar.dll with a hex editor - I would think that reverse-engineering
it would be trivial. It would seem that the folks who actually made
this thing are to be found at:
