How to Uninstall the Wolfram Tool Bar
Wolfram proclaims itself a "computational knowledge engine," which is a search engine that returns answers to searched queries rather than Web pages. For example, searching "Earthquakes in Mexico in 2000" returns a map of Mexico containing dots at each location that an earthquake occurred in the year 2000, rather than a list of Web pages containing this information. The Wolfram toolbar is compatible with both Microsoft Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox, and it allows you to search for answers using Wolfram without visiting the website. Fortunately, you can quickly and easily remove the Wolfram toolbar if you no longer need it.
