Default Re: Deleting ActiveX Controls

If they activeX controls they will be in the foilder Sharon mentioned. If
they are browser helper objects (BHOs) or toolbars, they are not in that
folder; you would need to uninstall or the app that installed them (or in
some BHO cases, there would be an option in the app not to load the BHO)
