You cannot have both running at the same time.\n\nBut if you do not like IE7 and then uninstall this, you will automatically revert back to IE6

if you like to keep it but don't want to use or see it then click "view" from manubar of your IE and then click "toolbar" - then you will see yahoo toolbar - just uncheck it, close IE and open again - Done. but if you don't even want to keep it in your computer - then just go to Add-Remove from control panel then un-install it - it is good to reboot your computer after un-install it. but if still it appear then consider - your computer has some other problem.

Option 1: via the Toolbar\n\nSelect "Uninstall" from the Pencil button (located next to the "Y").\nClick "Uninstall" on the uninstall page.\nClose any open IE windows\nWhen you restart Internet Explorer, Toolbar will no longer be present.\n\nOption 2: via Control Panel\n\nClick on the Windows "Start" button\nSelect "Control Panel" from the "Settings" menu\nDouble-click on "Add/Remove Programs"\nScroll down and click on the "Yahoo! Toolbar" entry\nClick on "Change/Remove"\nClose any open IE windows\nYahoo! Toolbar is now uninstalled. Start IE again after closing all your open IE browser windows and it will no longer be present.\n\nIf you follow these steps and Yahoo! Toolbar is still present, make sure you have closed all your open IE browser windows. Due to Internet Explorer being integrated with Windows, you may need to restart your computer to fully uninstall Yahoo! Toolbar.\n\nIf you like the functionality of Yahoo! Toolbar, instead of removing Yahoo! Toolbar, you can hide Yahoo! Toolbar or move Yahoo! Toolbar so that it takes up less space in your browser.

Right -click in the "grey" area anywhere at the top of an open IE browser...it should bring up a checklist of installed toolbars\n\nMake sure "standard buttons and address bar" are checked

Every now and then, Windows locks the process in place so that it isn't shutting down properly - and thus won't re-open correctly. Easy fixed.\n\nWhen this happens next time, right-click on the Windows Taskbar and open the Task Manager. In the processes tab, look for Firefox.exe  - right-click and end the process. You'll get a warning pop up - is fine, just hit yes. \n\n\nOh, and IE doesn't have to worry about this issue because of the way it is integrated into the Windows architecture - it's ALWAYS running\nWill then open up just fine

hi\niexplorer.exe is the "Internet Explorer" application...\nit may be in trouble processing...just end the process.. it may happen because of many instances of the application were asked to run by clicking it many times or by hitting the Enter button many times while it is active or when loading a pop-up page from a web page and the Windows Firewall is trying to block it ... or it is trying to load a web page with troubles or the application itself is no longer working properly... it is so known that WinXp and later is a smart system..just end the process and it will work properly after that...if u face more troubles about the same application just update your system by clicking the "windows update" from your start menu....or just download a fresh -new- version of the IE application and install it.... it is important to use IE but it is not critical to be afraid to end the process .... just end it..\n\nand for other processes it is so normal to run many processes...and it is true that some of them slow down the performance of your PC cause they use alot of memory to run...just locate the process that is running under your username and it is so safe to end them if needed but those which are running under system or network service or local service..please dont end...the may affect your system...\n\nabout some answers telling u that if u ended the iexplorer.exe , your desktop will disappear...it is not true..the may mean Explorer.exe...which is Windows Explorer in oldest Windwos system and it is so important to run the graphical Interface u c .. I mean the icons and menues ...etc...\n\njust end the iexplorer.exe but dont end Explorer.exe\n\nenjoy it

It seems you have recently updated your windows operating system using windows update. The latest update from microsoft has improved the security of internet explorer. Nothing bad but can be annoying at time. Just take your mouse click on it once and you are done. Hope that answers your question.

If you are using internet explorer go to "Tools" then click on "Internet options" Go to the advanced tab and uncheck "Reuse windows for launching shortcuts"  Otherwise try the beta for IE 7 or Firefox seems to work extremely well "recommended over IE7"  Tabbed browsing is a good feature.

It's possible it has been hidden within your browser. If you're using Internet Explorer click on View --> Toolbars and make sure "Address Bar" is checked. If it is checked, then it may have been minimized. Internet Explorer allows you to adjust the placement of various toolbars, including the buttons and file menu. Right click anywhere in the toolbar area and unselect "Lock the Toolbars." This will allow you to drag the toolbar elements around. Find the "Address Bar" label and drag it downward. This should expose the full address bar. Keep fiddling with the toolbard until they are back to normal and then select "Lock the Toolbars" again.

Go to VIEW then TOOLBAR on the top menu of your Internet Explorer and there should be an option for either yahoo toolbar or standard toolbar. Just click on it and enable it. I dont know which toolbar you have so you might want to put a check next to the toolbar you want and disable it or enable it as you wish.

Internet Explorer is needed to operate windows.\nIt cannot be deleted. If you wanted to disable it go to start>allprograms>set program access and defaults then choose custom then uncheck enable access to this program.

It is just as simple as going to Add/Remove programs and removing it.  It will automatically roll back to IE 6 afterwards.
