How to get rid of Bing
I want to get rid of Bing but please don't tell me to go to Remove Programs in Control Panel because Bing does not show up there.

Could you possibly have this installed on your computer? -

This is the only software that would be called "Bing" - other than this Bing is not software but a search engine webpage that is used as default by MS IE Explorer and may show up as default on other browsers. But as explained so far - there are ways to make another search engine the default.
From what I have found, Bing Desktop came through at some point as part of an MS update to Win 7. According to Microsoft Bing Desktop should be listed on the Uninstall menu in the Control Panel and can be uninstalled like any other software.
