I recently installed some software that gave me no option but to install the BING toolbar alongside it. I assumed I'd be able to remove it from Firefox via the Firefox addons control panel, but couldn't find it. I then checked my add/remove programs control panel and couldn't find it listed. It turns out it's called "Search Toolbar" (or something simlar to that...I wasn't paying attention before I uninstalled it). The uninstaller has no Microsoft branding to clue you to it's purpose. MSFT is obviously trying to make it difficult to remove the BING toolbar by hiding their branding and naming it something other than "BING Toolbar". Typical. Just another reason not to use BING.
