Can you easily Enable / Disable Toolbar

I only want to use it _sometimes_

Subject / meta says it all really. I don't know of a way, so currently I have to install it when I want to use it, then uninstall when i've finished.

I do not want to leave it running all the time....

Ok, pretty sure you cannot - so i've created two "DOS" batch files called ToolbarOn.bat and ToolbarOff.bat on my desktop.

ToolbarOff.bat:
rename c:\windows\GoogleToolbar.dll GoogleToolbar.dl_

ToolbarOn.bat:
rename c:\windows\GoogleToolbar.dl_ GoogleToolbar.dll

Seems to work fine. Internet Explorer does not kick up a fuss when it cannot find the .dll associated with a registered Browser Helper Object (which is what the Toolbar is).

Sorry for replying to my own post. Hope you all had a great time in Boston!

I can turn it off by right clicking on the toolbar section and just disable it ;)
