How to Remove Unwanted Toolbar Icons From AOL 9.0

America Online (AOL) comes with a Web browser that contains a built-in AOL toolbar filled with various icons. Each icon serves as a shortcut link to either a specific online program offered by AOL (such as a link to AOL chat rooms) or shortcut links to specific websites, such as a news or weather site. The toolbar is customizable by the user with the ability to add and remove links and icons.
