I believe if you go to add/remove programs

you should be able to permanently remove it.

download and run spybot from safer-networking.org and
update and scan on easy and remove the filth
or run ad-aware from lavasoftusa.com and update and scan

and it was cute when you first ran hotbar and now you
realize the security of your computer has been compromized.
