Firstly, I have a problem which i'm sure has been asked about before, it seems quite common. EVERYtime i open a new IE window, up pops an incredibly annoying and equally useless blue toolbar saying "make money", "Music", "casino", "Investing", "travel", and "mortgage" on the left side, with various pulldown bars in the middle and a search thing on the right. Anyone had this problem and how do you get rid of it?! You can close it by clicking on the cross in the corner, granted, but rest assured it'll be back to p*ss you off the next time you want to access the WWW. Any help?

Also, I'm using a laptop for most of my daily computer needs, and, like all others, it has a standby function. Or it did. Until I disabled it. It's like this, one day I was happily standing it by, when it all went b*****-up. Everything crashed etc. blue screens. So I turned it off and the next time it was turned on, a little dialog greeted me, asking me if I'd like to prevent my laptop from going on standby in the future. I pressed enter, without thinking, and unwittingly told it, "yes". So now, I have to cold boot it ALL THE TIME...! Again, any help muchly appreciated. And don't rip the p**s [i]too[/] much.
By the way, im on windows 98 SE with an IBM T20 Thinkpad if that helps

No worries. It worked a dream for me too, what with this work PC being Admin-only secured, I didn't have many options (and shouldn't have been looking at porn), but it fixed it instantly :D

As for your Standby issue, sorry I can't help on that, I'm not all that good with the technical side of Laptops.
