People PC Toolbar

[Mimi]

How in the world do I uninstall this annoying icon on my
IE browser?

I uninstalled People PC over a year ago and here it is
still.

I have called PPC on 3 different occassions and no one
can figure it out (of course).

From my searches with google, I have found that this may
be Spyware.

I have Stopzilla, called them and they cannot help me
remove it either.

I have Windows XP.

Also, could I uninstall IE and then re-install it?

I cannot find a link to this either, again with google,
which is usually so awesome.

Beware of PeoplePC

TIA!

===============================
Or if you are uncomfortable with Regedit. Visit these sites. Download,
install, run and update one or all. They are all good, FREE utilities.
Any one of these should help to remove the Toolbar.
