GoogleToolbarNotifier.exe - Uninstall Techniques
Click the new settings button, then "Options", then a tab called "more" and directly under that is an option that says "set and keep search settings to Google". Untick that and the running process goes away. It is ticked by default. The Google Toolbar will warn you that another application may try to become the default search engine.
