Verizon can be installed without all there stuff.
But with this new modem, the tech person said to do the general install
rather than the option install
( I knew better, but she said it would not install yahoo, msn, nor verizon
stuff. Good thing I stopped short of the full install)
But, the tool bar is there, uninstalled there software, the tool bar is
still there, and nothing is in the add/remove programs for verizon.
If I reset the browser settings will it get rid of the toolbar?

Personal experience with a Verizon install? I don't have the current
"at&t
Yahoo! HSI" install disk. I did not get an "SBC Yahoo! DSL Service"
install
disk. I did not install anything from the ancient "PacBell DSL" install
disc. I set up an "SBC Yahoo! DSL Service" account, and an "at&t Yahoo!
HSI"
account without installing anything from those CDs. It should be
possible
to
set up Internet service without resorting to ISP CSs; after all, most
only
provide Windows CDs. How do people with Mac (OX9/OSX) and Linux set up
ISP
accounts?

Well, yes. I guess I am.
Have /you/ set-up a Verizon DSL account?
That is why I asked...
I've had to set up residential- and business-Verizon DSL accounts and
configure the Verizon-supplied modems (you must use theirs) in several
customer locations, and have had to do it again on two (2) of them. It
simply cannot be done without using the Verizon CD and having to install
just about everything on it, save the ISP-provided security suite, to (1)
set up the DSL account and (2) configure the modem. Once it's up &
running, all of it can be uninstalled, including Verizon toolbar, Help and
SmartBridge, with no negative affects.
Verizon is not AT&T (née SBC née PacBell/SoutheastBell).
