Most anti-spyware utilities are capable of removing ISTBar. You can remove it with Ad-aware SE, for instance. Simply open the anti-spyware utility and click the Scan Now button to launch a search for malware. When the search is complete, choose the Critical Objects tab to view the list of identified components. Select all of the spyware-related items, including anything that refers to the ISTBar variants described below, and click the Next button. Finally, click OK to move the selected items to a quarantine folder. Reboot your system if prompted to do so.

ISTBar (MSUpdates\MSCache; SearchBarCash; TinyBar; ISTBar/AUpdat; and variants, including ISTBar/MSCache and ISTBar/XXXToolbar) is a browser hijacker that reconfigures the start page, toolbars, and search page in IE.

There is also a manual method on this website.

Or try this spyware scanner to auto remove it.

If you still have problems you should go to the malware forum and get help there.
