Default Hyper Bar 1 - Virus help removal

I have the "hyper bar 1" on my IE9 and need to remove it, google has manual
ones like deleting registry entreys but is this safe?

Is there a free program to auto remove it safely?

Thanks
GK

First of all do not touch the Registry unless you know what you are doing. Do not
rely on programs that claim to be Registry Tools and fixes because the are all snake
oil remedies.
Secondly run the following

www.malwarebytes.com
www.SuperAntiSpyware.com

And you should run the FREE versions which will do the job for you.

The suggestion here was MalwareBytes MBAM. The poster with the problem
didn't follow through, so no feedback on success.

http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/topic416805.html

The article here, claims to understand the component parts of the thing,
but uses the term "If Hyperbar uses rootkit technologies..." like they
don't know whether it does or not. So it doesn't sound like they really
know how to defeat it. The registry entries at least, make it seem like
the toolbar can download code as it needs it, and is more than just
a thing for putting unwanted adverts on your screen. I mean, these days,
no software is *this* naive looking. It's bound to have some way to
put itself back, put the registry entries back and so on.

Your System Restore points, are going to have copies of that crap, so
if you take the system back a few days with System Restore, you might well
get to keep the components. And that's why giving it a bash with MBAM
first might be the best thing. Followed by a reboot, and check to see if
the .dll is still there or not.

Sorry for the long reply, I tried using the free programs but they came up
with no detections at all so I thought about deleting the temp internet
files and cookies and some other stuff and removed the homepage from the
internet options - this has worked, I dont know why, but the HYPER BAR 1 has
gone now it might have been from the free programs though the full scans
found nothing!?!

if anyone has this aswell try like above oh and there was no program called
"startnow toolbar" like google said to uninstall to fix.

If it's not malware, the malware scans wouldn't be expected to find it.

Using Google, I didn't find any indication that it's malware - but I
didn't look around very much.
