Somehow the program "Starware" has been installed as my internet toolbar.
I can't get it off.
I use the Internet Explorer as my browser.
Please tell me how to get this thing off.
Thanks

Clarification of Question by prescotttom-ga on 19 May 2006 08:48 PDT

I have tried to delet the whole program by going to "Control Panel" ..
"Add and Remo0ve Programs" and then delete.  A window appears asking
if "you really want to delet this?" but no place to answer the
question.
I also used "Defender Pro" .. a utility program to eliminate Starware,
but after going through the process, Starware is still there and
healthier than ever.
Thanks,

Dear Tom, 

Here are Starware removal instructions:

If this doesn't help, try: 
Pareto Logic
<http://labs.paretologic.com/spyware.aspx?remove=Adware.Starware> 

In addition, here are a couple of programmes protecting you from
spyware, if you run them once in a while:

AdAware

Spybot
<http://www.safer-networking.org/> 

You can also try to use them against this parasite. 

I hope this answers your question. Please contact me if you need any
clarification on this answer before you rate it.

Hi,

 You are in a greater change of getting infected from
the internet if not using some anti adware/virus software.

I did get toolbar adware and similar bad objects. Not saying
that I don't get any now. But my untiadware software blocks
them instantly. It runs in the backround everytime I am online.

Personally I have no trouble at all and I use two software:

1) An untivirus - McAfee.com
2) An unti adware - Deletespyware-adware.com

Karl

They both work great and delete spyware and other bad object!!
