Files called tbpssvc.exe, tb_setup.exe and toolbar.dll may appear in your c:\Program Files\Toolbar\ folder. These files are a variant of the Huntbar adware. TB_Setup.exe is the installer for the HuntBar IE Toolbar. It installs both tbs.exe and toolbar.dll.

To remove the file, first, go to Task Manager (CTRL+ALT+DEL) Select the Tab labeled PROCESSES, look for any of these and see if they exist, if so please highlight or right click and select END PROCESS!. While there, look for any files that appear to be a random collection of letters and numbers. Kill those files as well.
