If you’re loading Microsoft Internet Explorer today and find that it mysteriously crashes out on you, try uninstalling the Yahoo! Toolbar.

  • Open your Start Menu
  • Open the Control Panel
  • Double-click the “Add or Remove Programs” icon
  • Locate the Yahoo! Toolbar in the list of available programs and click on it
  • Click on the “remove” button
  • Click any “ok” buttons you are subsequently exposed to
  • Rejoice and resume your regular web-surfing activities

No, I don’t know what happened to Yahoo! Toolbar today, but there has been a rash of these problems cropping up suddenly.

*Edit: Every case amongst dozens tonight has involved an installation of McAfee or Norton Antivirus; it looks like Yahoo! Toolbar be getting terminated by those apps. Let’s hear it for rogue virus definitions!
