Has Google Become A Little Evil?
One of the linchpin behind Google's philosophy is "Do No Evil." But what happens if rivals threaten with new search engines? According to this article Google is making sure that Google remains as the default engine, come hell or high water. The latest version of Google Toolbar for IE has a strange new feature: it keeps Google as the default search engine, even if another software tries to change the settings.
According to the author of the article, even if you disable "Search with Google" from the toolbar, and kill GoogleToolbarNotifier.exe, everytime you load IE, Google Toolbar launches GoogleToolbarNotifier.exe once again. The only way to get rid of the notifier is to delete the folder C:\Program Files\Google\GoogleToolbarNotifier.

IMHO Google activated that feature as a prevention of evil exercise.
