Search The Web Toolbar Virus

I run windows XP home Edition. Also use AIM instant messaging. I have a tool
bar in bottom right hand corner of the screen that rolls up and down. In the
toolbar it says"Search the Web". Whatever this is,it highjacks internet
explorer and significantly slows system performance; often running at 100%
CPU. Updated versions of Adware, spybot, Microsoft Beta version spyware and
MCafee can't clean it.

Thank you. This did not fix. I think this situation is related to "Desk
Top Search"

Hello Kurt ,
If you are still having trouble Webroot Spy-Sweeper is really good at
getting rid of that.
