Annoying browser feature - how to get rid of it?
How can I get rid of this annoying image mouseover popup in Internet Explorer?
I absolutely hate it when it pops up. I never use use it, and it annoys the hell out of me.

I've never found out how to get rid of that annoying little toolbar.
My solution... www.getfirefox.com
I just found an extension for Firefox that lets me open an IE window inside of Firefox. Some financial websites only work with IE. Fortunately only one of mine use that ancient, bloated browser.

Can't you click and drag that thing up to your toolbar?
Tools->Manage Add-ons ?
Right click toolbar -> customize?

That only removes the IE shortcut from the desktop and start menu, tho
IE can't be uninstalled with Windows' own tools. Just block IE from a good firewall program and install a better browser.

So basically IE sucks. underling's suggestion isn't an IE option, but must be an add on. Removing IE isn't quite an option. I have Firefox already, but I prefer Avant Browser. Thanks for the help everyone, I will just live with it.
