I personally try avoiding tool bars as much as possible for various
reasons,
but that's just me your results may vary.

Hi Vicky,
To the best of my understanding Bing is a newer Microsoft search
engine that
will also install a toolbar, much like the toolbar that Google
installs on
your computer if you're not careful. As RJ stated, it can be a royal
pain
in the but, as you have been obviously hearing / reading about, thus
the
reason for this email thread. If I have mispoken or misrepresented
Bing in
any way, will someone please jump in & correct me?!
Take care.
Mike

Would someone explain about Bing? Is it a part of Windows? I gather,
we
don't actually need it?
