My explorer tool bar has "adult links" as a package of
icons. (Visible if I right click on the tool bar) I
would like these to go away and have been unable to find
a means to delete. An icon also pops up on my desk top
that is a daily update of these links. The properties
does not give me any clues where this is coming from
except for that it is an internet link. Can anyone help
me?

Hi Kevin,

First option is to run Ad-Aware scan (www.lavasoftusa.com).

Open Registry Editor and delete the Toolbar key here:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Toolbar

Or download this fix:
http://www.angelfire.com/dragon/sramesh2k/reg/IEToolbar.reg

Deletes the following registry key; Resets Toolbar, Addressbar positions to
defaults.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Toolbar

Find and install "Ad-Aware" or "Spybot, Search and Destroy" [or maybe both,
they are free] to remove this junk.
