Hello. How old is your computer? Arlene,my room mate just purchased hers and
it came with google so I don't think having google on as your home page is
responsible for this. It will not disapear unless you disable or delete it.
You can delete the google tool bar if you deem it necessary. to do this
1. Press start menu adn locate the control pannel.
2. Find add slash remove programs.
3. If running xp, you will need to arrow down to "google tool bar" and tab
to change slash remove.
4. once removed, you do not have to worry about it though you will or may
nee another pop up blocker. hth.
