How do I disable the Ask.com toolbar?
How do I disable the Ask.com toolbar as I have found it is causing conflicts w/ other programs on my computer? I uninstalled the app in Unistall programs in Windows 7 and the toolbar is still next to my browser.

How do I disable the Ask.com toolbar
Hi David, There are instructions that can be found starting in Problematic extensions, that point to a special topic on uninstalling toolbars.
- Problematic extensions - MozillaZine Knowledge Base

Then to fix the default search engine used at the Location Bar, change the value of keyword.URL in about:config to one of the values shown in Location Bar search at MozillaZine with right-click then modify.
If you are not familiar with about:config that is what you type into the location bar. If you've never used it it will produce a nasty message, but before dismissing it be sure the uncheck the checkbox first.
