| I finally got tricked into installing one of those rouge IE toolbars. You know the ones that just pop-up and install thems with ads and what-not. Funny thing is I can't find it in Add/Remove Programs and this slick one, shows up as blank when right clicked on. Any ideas on how to get rid of it? Registry?

| your best bet is to hide it just click on the blank thing
but i do not know if you could also do that in msconfig and make it not load
or the best thing is to put a floppy and boot up and type the majic words format C:/s | |

| The worst one is Hotbar.
This doesn't appear to Hotbar, though.
Try running Spybot - Search & Destroy.
Get it here
I assume that you already ran Ad-Aware 6 through the machine.

looks more blue than rouge to me.
maybe you mean a rogue toolbar? 
this seems to be a common error people typing rouge for rogue, just been reading a thread on a BMW forum and about three people did exactly the same. | |

Try this one
I don't have XP, but in Add/Remove Programs, is there an option to repair or recover IE? | |

I checked Add/Remove Programs, nothing for IE rollback. Let's add that to the list of things for future M$ workstation products.
I'll run it at home tonight and see if it clears things up. Thanks! | |

| I'm running IE6 on a 98 hunk o' crap & I've got this http://www.techspot.com/tweaks/ie6/print.2.gif
in Add/Remove programs.
Kinda hoping you could restore to the previous configuration.
Might also want to have a little look through this | |

| Glad you found a cure. You could have gone into the registry and fixed it, but running a program is a lot quicker and less risky! | |
