Delete installed toolbar in IE

Hello,
well for some reason I got 2 new toolbars in my Internet Explorer and I have no idea how to get rid of them. One is the SearchBar that gives me popups everytime I visit a site, and the other one is an Adult Links one
I know there's some software to get rid of this stuff and others like Bonzai buddy, anyone know any??
Thx

I downloaded the ad-ware program and deleted a bunch of stuff like Gator, but I still can't get rid of the Internet Explorer toolbars. I looked for an uninstallation file etc. and found nothing.
I'd appreciate any help

if you have no luck, use Netscape

What are the names of the toolbars that are on your IE?

Have to tried to go in to add/remove programs to see if they may be hidden in there?

U can get rid of it using a program called Reg Cleaner. u can download it at www.tucows.com .

this is why i use mozilla ( http://mozilla.org ) no need to worry about self installed programs, pop ups, active x, better cookie manager or other ie/m$ only stuff.

Well i got that lop shit on my comp. Ad aware gets rid of some of it, make sure u have the latest version. U may be able to deselect the toolbars in view, toolbars etc.

But otherwise its a matter of formatting, and making sure yr internet settings r not set to super low so u dont get them back

THx guys, I got rid of them, I had to format my pc because that New.net program that comes with iMesh and stuff like that screwed everything up, so everything's working just fine
