Seacrch Assistant?

[Don]

Suddenly I have a "Search" box on the bottom of my explorer (not IE) in the
Tool Bar! I can right click on the tool bar and uncheck "Search Assistant"
and it disappears but comes back on, on each boot-up. It goes to "BlazeFind"
as a default!

I Googled BlazeFind but it all deals with IE not the desktop toolbar.

Any suggestions?
