Full Version: Annoying "blank" toolbar

Underneath my bookmarks toolbar, is a blank white sort of toolbar. For me, it was never there before, and i'm wondering what it is.

I have tried right clicking to remove, but I get no menu at all. I tried system restore with no success. I have run ad-aware, and spybot.

Going by your HijackThis log, you don't have it anymore. Shall we continue the discussion there since the toolbar has been resolved? smile.gif
