When I access the Internet via IE7, there are FOUR lines in the browser, EACH with a Search Box. It looks like there's one for/from HP, one from Yahoo, one from AOL, and one more -- can't tell whose. How on earth do I get rid of some of these? The various lines take up almost a quarter of the top part of the screen. Thanks!!

There should be some sort of settings menu for each and it may have an uninstall option on it. I know Google Toolbar does.

Oh sheesh. you could start by hiding them. In IE7, go to view-> toolbars and just uncheck what you don't want to see.

Even worse, I've known things I wanted to download and it wouldn't let me uncheck the radio buttons for all the extra stuff. That was a big no-no. I'm very careful about what I download.

But whenever I get anything that won't let me uncheck the radio buttons (actually that never happens to me anymore) I just download it anyway and go back and uninstall the crap I don't want.
