Steps to remove the skin:
1. Log into the User account that is experiencing the problem.
2. Click on Start and Run.
3. Type in regedit and click OK.
4. Click on the plus next to HKEY_CURRENT_USER.
5. Click on the plus next to Software.
6. Click on the plus next to Microsoft.
7. Click on the plus next to Internet Explorer.
8. Click on Toolbar.
This is the full key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet
Explorer\Toolbar
Once Toolbar has been selected look at the right hand pane.
There should be two entries for BackBitMap. One that deals with IE and the
other
for Shell (for windows explorer).
At this point you can either delete both registry entries for BackBitMap and
restart the computer or you can note the location of the bitmap images as
well
prior to deleting the entries. If you note the location and name of the
bitmap
images being used you can delete the bitmaps as well. Deleting the registry
entries
is enough as this will revert the toolbar back to the normal background
