36861 2002-02-24 03:41:00 when i upgraded to ie 6 it came with the regkey alexa.
Found it with ad-aware, is it safe to delete and why does ms bundle it with their product.

cheers

36863 2002-02-24 06:56:00 I don't actually have the toolbar or any reference to it in my program files or in add/remove.
When I ran ad-aware it came up with this info.
Type Regkey
System Alexa
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
software\microsoft\internet explorer\extensions\{c95fe080-8f5d-11d2-a20b-00aa003c157a}
I've tried a google search and come up with one site but its not in english, so I'm wondering what it is and if it is fine to delete it.
cheers

Alexa is not part of IE6.
Ad-aware found it on my system and deleted it, no problems.
I don't know how it got there.

Hmmph.
