You're paying SBC Yahoo and they refuse to tell you how to remove their
branded version of IE or how to unbrand it?

Did you really need that software? At most, the only real function it
provides is maybe some help links or a scanner to report what you have
in your system to their tech support. Usually that "help" or "setup"
software is worthless (to you).
