My toolbar shows "downloading the latest applications" 24/7 - how do I get rid of it?

Right under the toolbar is what looks line another toolbar and the only thing on it is the"working" circle and the words "downloading the latest applications". This is there all the time and there have been no applications loading. I want to get rid of it.

Caused by the MSN® Toolbar.

  • I searched on "ev handl" and found three questions on the problem I am having. I didn't see an answer. I am using windows 7 with the latest firefox update. How do I get rid of the error message?

    when opening windows in Fire Fox, I am getting a Java Script Application message. "Exc in ev handl: Type Error: oSAPlg.oRoot.log is not a function"
    I have Windows 7

    Your message is a little bit different but very similar to other message and it includes "SA" in the message, so I'm suggesting...
    Best solution appears to be to uninstall Site Advisor from system and then to reinstall again from www.siteadvisor.com as noted in https://community.mcafee.com/message/203466

    Hi,
    You an download the iAS6.5 from http://wwws.sun.com/software/download/download/
    There is no place where you can download the SP3. Anyway 6.5 has more advance features. Anyway SP2 works fine with win NT. If you have any specific problem with installation, you can point them out. I would suggest you to use 6.5 instead.
    Thanks

  • "Downloading the latest applications" appears in Firefox, but doesn't stop or disappear.

    == Issue
    ==
    I have another kind of problem with Firefox
    == Description
    ==
    When I open Mozilla Firefox, there is a blue/white bar with the words "Downloading the latest applications" in it. A dotted circle keeps spinning. Nothing stops or disappears and there is no listing of what applications are being downloaded. How do I stop this?
    This started this week. The only thing that I did differently before this start was to add a router to my modem and connect them to my computer and laptop.

    The spinning stopped after running my SuperAntispyware...but started up again when I tried to update my extensions on Firefox.
    I think that the problem might be with Adobe and Shockwave. I tried to find updates for my plug-ins and extensions for those programs when prompted by Mozilla Firefox. However, the site I was sent to from Firefox concerning Adobe and Shockwave updates, wasn't helpful.
    I tried installing, but it didn't work. I was prompted to look for instructions on Adobe by clicking on a link that didn't even lead me to anything regarding Mozilla Firefox. Finally, I clicked on the "still having problems" link, or something similar to that. It stored a file under "Downloads," which I opened and installed.
    I was given the message that the installation was successful, but Mozilla Firefox still showed that my Adobe and Shockwave needed to be updated.
    Anyone have any experience with installing Adobe and Shockwave with Mozilla Firefox?

  • How do I get rid of the blue "downloading the latest applications" bar which won't go away even after uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox?

    Can't get rid of the blue "downloading the latest applications" bar that seems to be just hanging and won't go away. I uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox, but the bar is still there after 2 days. I updated something (can't remember what!) on I.E., and it had the same blue bar, but it had a box I could x out of so it went away on I.E. I don't know why the blue bar is there on Firefox, as I did the update while on I.E.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == I updated an application while on Internet Explorer.

    Annette,
    #In the menu bar, at the top of the Firefox window, Go to Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions.
    # Locate ''each ''of the following extensions by name and click the disable button
    #Restart Firefox as prompted and see if the undesired toolbar has been removed.
    #The extensions to disable are: '''Crawler Toolbar''', '''MP3 Rocket Toolbar''', '''MSN Toolbar''', '''Search Helper Extension'''
    If you don't need some / all of those toolbars, consider leaving them disabled.
    You can probably remove these toolbars permanently from Start -> Control Panel -> Add/Remove Programs.

  • When opening firefox, a banner saying downloading the latest applications appears but nothing happens.

    Starting today, when I open Firefox a blue banner just under the toolbar pops up saying "Downloading the latest applications". Nothing is downloaded. I'm not sure if this is a function of Firefox or my default page Google. I tried to reload the latest version of Firefox and the problems persists.
