It depends what is being installed. Most toolbars are installed while installing a program. When installing a program, some have an option to intall the toolbar, just unclick it. You will more likely need to get yourself a spyware program like Lavasoft Adaware to control it.

You should be able to get rid of the toolbar from the add/remove programs menu - you can also select which toolbars your browser loads by clicking "view->toolbars" in the browser window.\n\nAs for spyware, Adaware, Spybot S&D and ewido anti-malware (now AVG anti-spyware) are all good programs.  Use all of them - they each miss a few things, so it's best to team up.

Right click on a blank space on that bar and choose "close toolbar." That should work. Best of luck.

something u can do to get rid of thoses toolbars is right click and uncheck then, it sounds like u have done that so go to control panel and then add/remove programs and the tool bars will be in there somewhere the prolem with that is that if u have a lot of programs then it may be hard to find the tool bar cause sometimes they are called something way out of wak

If you want to hide it , simply right click on it and uncheck the toolbar name.  If you want to get rid of it completely u will have to uninstall it from control panel.

Its either been disabled (you can check by clicking view and toolbars), or you have too many toolbars up, or its been dragged up out of site (in which case you can place your cursor at the bottom of tool bars until you see an arrow and click and hold, drag it down) or, you have a toolbar hijacker and you will need to remove it with adware removal tools. If its been jacked, it may have come with some software you downloaded and this software will also need to be uninstalled!

Under View - Toolbars, uncheck the one's you don't want visible.  Adware will add toolbars at random depending on certain sites you visit.  Some of them can be removed through Add/Remove Programs in the Control Panel, others you will have to use software such as Spybot and Adaware to remove.

If you are using Internet Explorer, just go to the menu item at the top of the browser window called VIEW, then select TOOLBARS, and make sure ADDRESS BAR is checked.\n\nFirefox is similar except your toolbar will be called "Navigation Toolbar".\n\nAdditionally,\n\nA virus or some other entity might have entered this restriction to disable the address bar.  See if you have the "NoAddressBar" registry entry described on this page:\n\nhttp://www.winguides.com/registry/display.php/1111/\n\nIf all else fails,\n\nmake sure Internet explorer is closed and use the following utility:\n\nhttp://www.dougknox.com/xp/utils/xp_toolbarfix.htm

There are 2 ways you can block those ads.\n\n1. Download the Yahoo! Toolbar. A Pop-Up Blocker comes together with the toolbar.\n\n2. Go to Tools at the top. Click Internet Options from the drop-down menu. Choose the Privacy tab. Under Settings, choose Medium or higher.

CLick the little pencil on the left side of the toolbar and select "Toolbar Options".  From there, you can navigate to remove the buttons you don't want to appear in the toolbar.

Right click in a free spot on the tool bar above and make sure "Lock the toolbars" is unchecked.  Then, simply grab the "address" text part of the bar and drag it wherever your heart desires.  As long as where your heart desires is on the tool bar somewhere.  I would suggest right clicking on a free spot on the tool bar above and checking "lock the toolbars" so, you won't run into this problem again.

Use a pop-up blocker if they come up as pop-up windows (yahoo toolbar may do the work for you). Also select high level of security in your browser. That would prevent many unwanted sites from being opened. Also use a firewall (you can get a personal firewall like zone alarm for free).
