Removing a Browsing Toolbar

Hi All,

I added a toolbar to my Google Chrome browser, however it's cutting off part of the page and I've tried to remove it without any success.

How are such toolbars removed? The second mouse button over the toolbar does not present any options.

Thanks

Which toolbar?

It came about from a Java update.

Does it have a name?

Ask Toolbar.

You could try looking in Start- settings- control panel- add/remove programs.

Right click on the toolbar. Is it on the list? If so delete it.

Hello Dogmary,
your link was exactly what I needed as I have this wretched toolbar from heaven knows where. However, when I tried the link the download has a 'malicious' warning, so I daren't open it! Is this anything to do with the toolbar or is my antivirus too vigilant? I run free Avast.

I have already tried uninstalling it but it won't go!
Thank you.

The link is to bleepingcomputer ... should be perfectly safe.

Thank you, is it safe to open this file with a malicious warning then? I am quite confused about that.
