Default google toolbar nuisance problem

Ever since google toolbar updated itself from version 3 to 4 yesterday, whenever I start up my pc I get the internet explorer dialup connection box pop up automatically. I used to hit the internet explorer button to get it up and now since the google update it comes up by itself. It is annoying. Cant find anything in the google options to stop this. It has also slowed down my start up time by a bit too. Can anyone help me put a stop to it without getting rid of the toolbar?

Yep, go to start>run and type msconfig

Go to the tab for Startup and you should see an entry for the google toolbar. Simply remove the tick and you should be sorted.

If it causes any grief, you can simply go back in and reverse the process.
