I have a "Yahoo! Search" bar on my task bar which I could not figure out how to remove. It was already there when I purchased my HP laptop. Please see if you can figure out which file to delete to remove the search bar, and also any other trash.
Thanks,
Anthony
PS. It shows that I'm running a unknown windows, but I'm running Vista 32bit.
