In Windows go to your Control Panel. Through your Programs icon click on "Uninstall a program." Find the program that installed the tool bar and uninstall it.

Go to 'Control Panel' and then 'Uninstall a Program'. The toolbar will be listed among the programs and just as you would uninstall any other program, you do the same here.

Go to add/remove programs. Look for the toolbar name. Then remove the program for the toolbar. If this does not work, go to the toolbar add-ons and turn it off. If you cannot remove it, it may be malicious software; scan the computer.

Typically a program will come wit an uninstall tool. Use this to remove it. If it has none then use the ad/remove tool in the control panel to uninstall it.
