In my Navigation toolbar, ther eis now a tool that is an edit box aith a magnifying glass. You enter a text, click the magnifying glass, and it shows results of a search using a search engine called "Somoto". I do not want this feature and I never installed it knowkingly. How can I get rid of it?

Please do the following.

  1. In the Search Bar (that's the small one on the right), click the arrow to get the list of installed search engines.

  2. Click the link at the bottom to open the Search Engines Manager.

  3. Click "Somoto" to highlight it and then click the "Remove" button.
