    Dear Helper:

    I am running win98, and received a parasite/search-hijacker.
    ISTBar/XXXToolbar.
    I have gotten rid of the files in the hkey area,,,,
    hkey_current_user_\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\run,,,,and deleted autoUpdater. Problem is, now I cannot get rid of the name XXXToolbar from my ADD/REMOVE PROGRAM page.It sits there on the bottom of the Program page and I can't remove it.
    Any suggestions anyone????

    This can be done through regedit, but download Regcleaner:

    http://www.vtoy.fi/jv16/shtml/software.shtml

    Install, run, and click on the blue "Uninstall Menu" button at the top. Here, you can remove things from Add/Remove that are gone but left an entry behind.
