It doesnt come off of Windows 98, either, honey. They dont want you to remove it.
Hotbar is Spyware and sends every url you visit to thier servers. Many private urls
can be accessed without a password (ebay accounts, email accounts, msn photos, etc.)
even though they "appear" to require one. I sent them a concerned email and asked
for an uninstaller and they gave me another that appaers to work. When i find it
i will email it to you - remind me: zygoteXY@yahoo.com (better yet, email them yourself)
They are irresponsible IMHO...They also say there is a link on their site, but if
i have to be online with it to remove it i dont trust them. So polite are they...
they dont accept that spyware even exists. They think i am that dumb. i wonder if
the original unistaller EVER works. After you use the uninstaller they send you or
i give you, use the free and WIDELY recomended esp. on these forums "SPYBOT- Search
and Destroy" from PepiMK Software to remove the rest that thier uninstaller missed.
It might be all you need, can only help. I'll re-post if i find the uninstaller from
them, but you have enough to go on in case i don't. I hope you remove it, because
the nasty shell integration really slows down all of Windows. Blame Microsoft for
that, in part. Must be real bad on an older PC. There are alternatives to Hotbar,
ways to change wallpaper for IE toolbar. The Pest Patrol site has a nice mention
of Hotbar, also. (PestPatrol's mem-check may not run well on your win95 PC but spybot
will do fine for you, and is easy to install and use.) it does not interfere with
virus software, it complements it. Click a miror to download. http://security.kolla.de/index.php?lang=en&page=download
If you feel unsure lemme know.

Unfortunately, this file is not longer available. Furthermore, I could not connect
to hotbar.com at all. Does anyone have this file hanging around their PC? if so,
could you make it available to those who need it?
THANKS!
