I have Vista on my laptop. On the taskbar along the bottom there is a small
search window that says Yahoo search in it. I never ever use it and I would
much rather have the space for something else. Does anyone know if I can turn
that thing off so I don't have it just sitting there like it's sticking its
toungue out at me saying "Na Na I am on your task bar and there ain't a thing
you can do about it"?
I don't know why it bugs me so bad...It probably wouldn't if I knew I could
turn it off if I decided I wanted to rather than feeling like my computer
setup and the way it looks is someone elses decision.
Thanks!!!

Right-click on a blank space on the task bar and choose Toolbars.
Uncheck Yahoo Search.

Right-click on a blank spot on the Taskbar.
Highlight "Toolbars" and deselect HP Advisor.

Thanks Shug, I had tried everything else. I never dreamed it was attached to
the HP Advisor.
Thanks Again!
