A toolbar named Begin2Search.Com bar has hijacked its way into my IE. I can't it remove it from Add/Remove and it's driving me nuts, highlighting random words and giving me countless pop-ups. Can anyone tell me how to remove this ?

Much appreciated,
Angi

I don't know if this is the exact same toolbar, but maybe this article is of any help?

Getfirefox.com It's the only browser I would ever use! Then you don't have to worry about internet explorer's little security problems. In the mean time, your system is probably loaded with spyware. Try to go to add and remove programs from the control panal and remove it. If that doesn't work you can try doing it from Program Files in the C drive of my computer. Also run Adaware SE, and Spybot Search and Destroy, which can both be found at download.com. If that doesn't work move onto HijackThis, but make sure you find a message board you can post your Hijack This list to, because not everything that finds is bad.
