Remove Dell Search Assistant

My Dell Latitude D610 sometimes goes to a Dell Search Assistant page when I do searches. Oddly it seems to like to do this when I type www.yahoo.com in my IE browser. Instead of going to Yahoo.Com I go to the Goole / Dell Search Assistant with paid search ads on it. In doing some research I discovered that a program called Google AFE was installed in my add/remove programs. It can also be called the Browser Address Error Redirector. Other tips to try are open your IE Browser. Click Tools, Click Options, Click the Programs Tab. Click on Manage Add-Ons then disable an add on called CBrowserHelperObject also called BAE.dll.
