Inbox toolbar

Good Morning. My laptop (Windows Vista) has got a programme on it which might have been part of something I downloaded but which is annoying me. It is a toolbar called inbox. It isn't in my list of programmes and using my search facility doesn't find it. Any ideas how I can get rid of it, please? I don't think it is harmful or malicious but I want it gone.

"Inbox Toolbar is an Internet Explorer plug-in allowing user to search the web using the search box and it also includes additional features such as popup blocker, useful links directory, IE skins and cursors. It may also include plug-ins."

Just disable it in internet explorer (tools>toolbars)

Thank you GG. I almost found it useful but did not realise it was a legit part of IE. I will leave it for the moment but thanks for pointing me in the direction of removal, if I want to. Have a good weekend!
