Random Toolbar on Computer

For some reason, I now have a toolbar on my internet explorer window. It's called Viewpoint by Yahoo. I've tried deleting the files manually but I'm not able to. How can I either a)delete the files or b) get rid of the whole thing together? Thanks for the help yall.

That's what you get for visiting those girly-girl websites.

Try going into your control panel and open the Add/Remove Software and see if it will let you uninstall it.

Download Ad-Aware Se & Spybot S&D and scan your computer with them. They should remove that pesky toolbar for you..
