How to Uninstall the Ask Toolbar on Firefox

If you use Mozilla Firefox as your Internet browser, you can customize Firefox by installing add-ons, such as the Ask toolbar. If you've installed the Ask toolbar on Firefox and no longer use it, you can remove the toolbar by uninstalling the add-on. You only need to open Firefox to get started.

Instructions

1. Open Firefox and select "Tools" from the top menu.

2. Select "Add-ons" from the menu. The Add-ons window will open; click the "Extensions" tab to view a list of your Firefox add-ons.

3. Select the Ask.com add-on and then click the "Uninstall" button beside it.

4. Click "Uninstall" when a window pops up asking if you are sure that you want to uninstall the Ask toolbar. The toolbar will begin uninstalling. You will be notified when the uninstall is complete.

5. Restart Firefox after uninstalling the Ask toolbar.

Tips & Warnings

• You can disable an add-on instead of uninstalling it if you think you might want to use it later. Open the Add-ons window again, select the Ask toolbar and click "Disable". The Ask toolbar will be gone until you enable it.
