How do I get rid of yahoo and Pogo toolbars. They are not listed in my XP Windows programs, but they are on my firefox home page and interfere with my gmail use..
Both toolbars have uninstall instructions in their help section shown on the toolbars. I've pasted these in the trouble-shooting section below. When I try to find these programs at the START menu, either in my settings or in the "add/remove program" section of my Control Panel, they are not there. Both toolbars take prominence over gmail, which is my preferred toolbar for browsing, etc. So although I can do whatever I need to do, I first have to wend my way through Pogo's face page and then yahoos intrusion on web sites. Why can't I get rid of these two toolbars? I never intentionally asked for them and I'm still not sure how they were authorized to be there, although it is obvious that I must have done it.

Go to: View > Toolbars to see if they are there. If they are, you can uncheck them.

Dear Silkphoenix,
Both toolbars were listed in the View>Toolbars section and I unchecked them successfully. Thank you so much.
You are welcome.
it wasnt listed at ALL on my toolbars, and when i originally open firefox, the first page is google. when id start a new tab however, this stupidness was there. i had to go into Control Panel->Internet Properties and change it there. Hope it helps you also :)
