Gary,

Now, try Taskbar Repair Tool Plus! and reset Taskbar to defaults:

Thanks, done that and I have finally got rid of search assistant. I have
sent you the omniband file. However, I still have one problem. When I start
my computer it now opens the taskbar with no quick launch toolbar. When I
tick the quick launch option this opens in the default setting, rather than
with the icons where I want them.
How can I get the taskbar to reopen as it was when I shut it down?

Type the command in RUN box.
Regsvr32 /u C:\Windows\System32\omniband.dll
Then, rename C:\Windows\System32\omniband.dll to old_omniband.dll and
restart Windows. And, can you send a copy of this file to me?

Thanks for that - using the tools you suggest i see that my computer is
riddled with spyware, and I have managed to get rid of most of it.
However, using add/delete programs to remove Search Assistant has not
worked. It no longer appears in the list of programs in add/remove programs,
but it is still working as before. Running the app you suggest gives the
following log,
List of installed Deskbands

Does this help?

Gary,
It's caused by the Search Assistant malware deskbar item.
Download all of these utilities and scan the system.
Note: Spyware removers are rules-based and are updated very frequently as
and when new malware is discovered. Therefore, update both of these tools
before scanning, very important.

NOTE: If that does not remove the "Search Assistant" deskbar, run this app
and post the log here:

This has to be an easy one, but I can't work out how to do it.
The kids have shuffled around the icons in my quick launch bar, and added
search assistant to the taskbar, which I don't want.
I can put it back how I want it, but every time I restart the computer, it
reverts to the messed up arrangement.
How do I make it restart with the changes still in place?
