At work, on an XP machine, IE8, I was able to go to the view menu and uncheck the bing tool bar. I don't know if that can be done the same way in IE9 and Windows 7. I have not used them, but if there is a way, that will make the Bing bar disappear. Windows asked me if I wanted to disable that add-on, and I said yes. It is not fun to get trapped in the Bing tool bar.

As a matter of fact there was a Bing desktop optional update in Windows updates recently. I have no idea what it is. So I left it unchecked and hid it because I'm sure it's little more than a headache generator for screen-reader users. So you might want to check add-ons and program files for anything bing related.
