Was having trouble with speed of IE and was advised to get foxfire and did. Everything is ok Except that in my tool bar above my page is the following. "Downloading the latest applications." This has been running for over an hour now and I can find no way to stop it and yes I have closed the window and reopened it. Now what?

This happened

Not sure how often

The "Downloading the latest applications" problem can be caused by the MSN® Toolbar (Tools > Add-ons > Plugins)
