Can't turn off family filter in IE 7?

Hi,I know quite a bit about running home computers and even for me (Hmm) removing the WINDOWS FAMILY FILTER seemed extremely tricky as there are indexed files to have to find and delete (PS. Kit note: using a Laptop Fujitsu Siemens Amilo 2008 build on new Windows 7) - keeping it short nothing worked until I downloaded "Revo Uninstaller" a free download; here's the link -------------- http://www.revouninstaller.com/ ------------- make sure you remove and delete everything!!!You can always choose to upload and or not upload anything you need via the Windows Update Installer later on.Hope this helps!!! I was so annoyed and then delighted at getting rid of it I had to let other people know too (and NO I don't work for Revo Uninstaller!).GOOD LUCK ALLGo To "Control Panel" then go to "Add Remove Programs" then click on "Windows live Essentails" there will be a command Button on the right hand side that says "Change/Remove" click that button a window will Pop up and off you the options "Uninstall" or "Repair" Uninstall is Selected by Default click "Continue". The uninstall Wizard will ask you what Components do you want to uninstall place a tick in "Family Filter" then click "Continue" once it has uninstalled it will ask you to Reboot as allways do that. And your Problem is Solved!! Please Note This works in windows xp and vista Also You Must Be A Admin of that computer to uninstall Programs and the Family Filter it self has nothing to do with Internet Explorer it's just the family filter. ============================================================ Improvement over the above answer: If you have windows vista. Windows live family filter software can be easily removed from Control panel> Programs and features>Windows live essentials> uninstall > Select Family filter and uninstall. Ofcourse, you need to be an admin of the computer. And there is no need to reboot. May be it is possible in Windows XP as well !!!!

How can you detele toolbar?

How to delete, uninstall or remove VRE Toolbar This one is the easiest to remove, because both IE and Firefox versions have the Uninstall menu item. This is why we never receive "how to delete VRE toolbar" questions. But if you simply need some browser space, use the Hide option, so that you don't have to re-install the toolbar when you need it again. How to remove, delete or uninstall just about any IE toolbar, including Yahoo, Google or MSN You can uninstall Internet Explorer toolbars through your Add/Remove Programs window: 1. Click the Windows "Start" button in the lower left-hand corner of your screen. 2. Select "Control Panel" from the "Settings" menu. 3. Double-click on "Add/Remove Programs". 4. Scroll down and click on the unwanted toolbar entry. For example, "Google Toolbar for IE" or "Yahoo! Toolbar". 5. Click on "Change/Remove." 6. Close any open IE windows. How to uninstall, delete or remove just about any Firefox toolbar, including Google, Yahoo, or AOL You can use the Extension Manager in Firefox to remove a Firefox toolbar: 1. Click the "Tools" menu in the Firefox browser. 2. Click the "Extensions" menu item ("Add-ons" in Firefox 2). 3. In the Firefox Extensions Manager window, scroll down and click on the unwanted toolbar entry. For example, "Yahoo! Toolbar" or "Google Toolbar for Firefox". 4. Click "Uninstall". 5. Click "OK" or "Uninstall" in the confirmation window. 6. Exit Extension Manager. Restart your browser. If this uninstall method doesn't work for you, your Firefox user profile may be corrupt. You might need to create a new user profile for your browser.
