AVG Toolbar thingy forcing itself on me.

    I'm happy with AVG Antivirus, except that in Firefox, it keeps forcing their toolbar on me.
    What I mean --
    If I hide the toolbar, it eventually pops itself back up.
    If I disable the addon, it re-enables itself.
    There's no way to uninstall the addon from Firefox. If I knew where it was, I would be able to manually delete it but I can't find it.

    If there's no way to delete it, I'd rather put up with it than to uninstall AVG, but it'd be appreciated if somebody knew. I guess it snuck its way in with installation, but I didn't see any way to change components and I'd feel a bit unsafe if I uninstalled then reinstalled.
