I somehow have sidewicki involved, and it is a pain, as it opens when I click on a bookmark, rather than opening a full page. The problem is I can't find it to delete or stop it. I know it is google, but can't find it on my add ons or toolbars, and a search of the computer shows nothing. Can someone please help me get rid of the darn thing??

Sidewicki is part of the Google Toolbar

See http://www.google.com/support/toolbar/bin/static.py?hl=en&page=guide.cs&guide=24296

Sidewicki is not in the toolbar, or listed anywhere. I did a search, and it cannot be found, but the darn thing still works. When i open my homepage and click on a web site, a quarter screen opens. Maybe it is not sidewicki but something else?? I have searched my add ons but can find nothing!!

I don't think it is Sidewiki. It is not checked on the tool bar. Something else is causing a new sidebar to open when i click on a bookmark, but this only happens when I am on my homepage. Clicking on a bookmark AFTER another page has been opened does not cause this to happen!! A royal pain!!
