[RESOLVED] Getting Rid of Yahoo Toolbar?
I have no need for Yahoo toolbar. I went to add/remove programs and tried to remove it. That froze up my system. I couldn't even turn off my computer. I had to unplug it to get it to go off.
How do I remove Yahoo Toolbar without this hassle?
I ddin't download Yahoo Toolbar. It was added with something else.

I am not completely familiar with how to go into safe mode. Can you tell me how to get into safe mode? And are you sure that it will work to add/remove in safe mode?
Getting rid of Yahoo Toolbar
I checked on what the links said. Unfortunately, I couldn't do what the links said because when I opened IE the Yahoo Toolbar wasn't enabled and I didn't know what to do to get it to enable. However, it is listed in add/remove programs. But, like I said, if I try to remove it from there then my computer freezes.
Why is it listed in add/remove and not enabled in IE? And what can I do to get rid of it since I can't follow the directions for getting rid of it in IE.

I have followed all the advice that you people have provided, but no go! The Yahoo Toolbar IS not enabled. And even though I click on it nothing happens. It will not enable.
To recap: When I tried to remove it using add/remove in control panel it froze my system. And I can't uninstall it using the advice from Yahoo.
Is there any other process I can try?
BTW. I ddin't get an email notification of your reply even though I have email notification selected.

I looked everywhere you said and it wasn't there. I then went to add/remove and this time it asked me if I was sure that I wanted to uninstall it. I clicked yes and was told that it couldn't do it because the uninstall log was not found.
Does this mean I am stuck with it?

It didn't work exactly as you said -- it didn't ask me to overwrite -- but I did download and install it then went to add/remove and now it is uninstalled.
Thanks!
BTW. I tried to mark this thread as resolved and all it did was take me to one of those "page can't be found" places.
