Many years ago, General Motors invented the Torx screwdriver and screw so that you'd need to pay Mr. Goodwrench each and every time you needed a light bulb replaced. Eventually, the government forced them to allow 3rd party manufacturers to sell a compatible screwdriver, because consumers have a right to not get "Screwed" for the right to work on something they own. Perhaps the same will happen to Apple, but I like to believe that consumers are smart enough to purchase an alternative product.
My default browser in Windows is Chrome, and it's always telling me that Skype toolbars has become unresponsive, and offers to kill it.
After reading this, I decided to uninstall it by simply right clicking on it and selecting, "Uninstall."
Two points for Google Chrome; one for isolating and killing the problematic toolbar when it misbehaves, and two for making it real easy to uninstall the toolbar.
