Hey Dennis, In addition to Adaware, I like to run Spybot Search & Destroy as they seem to detect slightly different things. However, I would guess that Spybot wouldn't help you.
I'm pretty sure you could edit the registry to remove this toolbar, but the other really useful tool is Hijack This available at http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/downloads.html. This is a handy tool that lists and catagorizes a whole bunch of things on your computer. Then, you can choose to "fix" each one. I don't always recognize everything it lists, but I can look up anything I don't know and decide to fix it or leave it alone. There are several tutorials available that describe the categories they use etc. The category assigned to BHOs is "02", so it is pretty easy to see all the enabled BHOs. Good luck!
