Go to control panel and open Display.

Go to the Desktop tab and click Customise Desktop down the bottom.

Click on the Web tab and uncheck any ticked boxes there.

Hope that was your problem.

Hi,

Right click on an empty area on the desktop and select properties. Flip to the desktop tab and click
on 'customize desktop'. Flip to the web tab and uncheck the Google item. I hope this helps.
