What is it and how to get rid of it?

I'm a novice with computers. I currently use Yahoo as my main search engine. In an effort to make more room on my desktop, I need to know how to get rid of the "other" yahoo search bar in the upper right hand corner of my pages. This is redundant, and I want to get rid of it. I'm sure that there is some 'computerese, that I'm not familiar with. But I need to make more room. Please help?!

    Hello

    Go to start>settings>control panel >add remove programmes - look for yahoo search bar/tool bar and uninstall - I use yahoo - but when I install it I use the custom install and do not have the tool bar.

    You could also click the arrow at the end of the Yahoo search box and change search defaults.

    Good luck
