Les, it sounds like you have too many toolbars open in the browser. Got to your browser, which I am guessing is Internet Explorer anyway, and follow these steps:

1. Go to the “Tools” menu – on that menu you will see a selection for “Toolbars”.

2. Look in the “Toolbars” menu and you will see listed there “Yahoo” with a tick next to it. Click on Yahoo and it should switch it off.

3. You can switch it back on again by selecting it again in then “Toolbars” menu.

You can turn the AVG toolbar off the same way. Note that AVG is still running on your system, you’ve just turned off the toolbar.

Cheers, Thomo the Lost

Thanks for that, Nat.
All I want to do is to get rid of Yahoo!
I really want to use Internet Explorer, but I’m not going to knock myself out trying to get it off while still retaining AVG, which it came with.
Cheers.

Thanks, Natalie
I found your overview accurate and fair, so many comments these days sound driven by marketing bods, rather than technical reality.
