I find in the tech business more often than not people are click happy. As a general rule of thumb you should always click a custom install so you see what your actually getting. I have a feeling if you do that with this game you will not get the toolbar and the game will work fine. To call it a waste of money because you missed an option to uncheck is a little harsh. I agree with you toolbars are the bane of a computer persons' existence but i doubt its a requirement to play. Many others are playing just nicely without a toolbar im sure.
