Remove Search Box in Internet Explorer 7

If you use a third-party toolbar that has a search box or simply never use the search box in Internet Explorer 7 follow these steps to remove the search box from Internet Explorer:

- Start up Registry Editor.
- Navigate through HKEY_CURRENT_USER, Software, Policies, Microsoft and Internet Explorer.
- Create a new key in Internet Explorer called InfoDelivery.
- Create a new key in InfoDelivery called Restrictions.
- Inside Restrictions, create a new DWORD and call it NoSearchBox.
- Set the value of NoSearchBox to1.
- Restart.

If you ever want to restore your search box, set the value of NoSearchBox to 0 and restart.

Note:
The Microsoft Registry Editor (regedit.exe) enables you to view, search for, and change settings in your system registry, which contains information about how your computer runs.
