Removal Of "AOL Toolbar" Option

D

Dale Franks

Would anyone know the way to rid my machine of this "AOL Toolbar" option. I
have deleted AOL off my computer, but this toolbar option remains. Example:
If I "right-click" on the IE6.0 toolbar, a widow appears, and there's a
choice for the "AOL Toolbar" ... I want to remove this!! Even a registry
hack would be ok!

Please answer in this newsgroup.

Thanks!
