Can't Delete Toolbar

Over the last weekend my young cousin came to visit me and inevitably needed to use my computer. Without my knowledge they installed something called the Morphster Toolbar. I deleted it, but that doesn't seem to be enough because things keep popping up about it whenever I open Safari. Can anyone please help me remove this thing completely?

Macbook 2,1, Mac OS X (10.6.4), 2.0GHZ Intel Core 2 Duo, 4.0GB RAM(Reads 3.2GB), and 400.00GB HD

HI,

Never heard of Morphster...

Open a Finder window. Select your Home folder in the Sidebar on the left. Now open the Library folder the the Internet Plugins folder and the Applications Support folder.

See if it's hiding there.

If it isn't there, in that Finder window select MacintoshHD in the Sidebar on the left. Open the Library folder then the Internet Plug-Ins folder. See if it's there. If not, try the Input Managers folder.

Also, try finding it with Spotlight. Top right corner of your Mac Desktop. Click the magnifying glass icon.

Your problem is with the Community Toolbar.
It's a terrible app/plugin that messes up Macs like the plague.

Did you ever install a customized toolbar? Like a Facebook one? Or for watching sports?
Here's how to search and destroy:

Close Safari.
Check here for CT Loader

Locate and delete:

HD/Library/Application Support/Conduit
HD/Library/InputManagers/CTLoader
HD/Library/Receipts/ctloader.pkg
HD/Library/Receipts/<Toolbar name>.pkg
HD/Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins/CT2285220.bundle
HD/Users/<User name>/Library/Application Support/Conduit

It may not be in every single location, but get it out where ever you find it.
Restart Safari. Any Better?

Makes more sense now...



/Library/Application Support/Conduit

/Library/InputManagers/CTLoader

/Library/Receipts/ctloader.pkg

/Library/Receipts/<Toolbar name>.pkg

/Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins/CT2285220.bundle

/Users/<User name>/Library/Application Support/Conduit

Just follow the paths and delete all CTLoader / Conduit files.
