That happens because you have HotBar installed. You should remove HotBar because it does contain spyware.
To remove HotBar:
Go to Settings > Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs
Look for 'Hotbar' or "Web Tools by Hotbar"
Click Add/Remove
Sometimes the uninstaller will get stuck and you won't be able to remove it with Add/Remove. In this case, download the uninstaller
here. Then run the uninstaller.
