Yahoo Toolbar --- Unable to Remove

[thecavern]

I accidently added the "Yahoo Toolbar" to my MIE-9.

 

I followed the standard intructions for removal.

 

I went to "Tools" then "Manage Add Ons".

 

The list of Add Ons appeared. When I click any other Add On in the list the "disable" button lights up.

 

When I click on "Yahoo Toolbar" the "disable" button does not light up so I am unable to get rid of the toolbar.

 

While on MIE9, I tried clicking on the "X" at the left side of the Yahoo Toolbar. Two choices appear :  (1) Hide Yahoo Toolbar temporarily  (2)  Disable Yahoo Toolbar permanently.

 

I can Hide the toolbar but when I click on the option to permanently disable the toolbar I get a message that says "This action is restricted. Contact your system administrator".

 

So -- Anyone have a solution to my situation ?

 

Thanks  !!!

I just figuered out how to get rid of the toolbar.

 

You go into Control Panel, click on Programs And Features. Then you pick "Yahoo Toolbar" and Uninstall it.

 

Hope this helps others with a similar situation.
