I installed the stupid thing to get rid of the banner bar message on MSN about it. The stupid thing still puts up the banner message. I just want it gone. I've tried saying not now and installing it what the heck do you want? GO AWAY ALREADY

Does not seem to work unless you let it make MSN your homepage. Then, even if you install it, it doesn't work. It says you're supposed to click some little heart to add items to your favorites. Where is it? The extensions icon has a heart on it, but clicking on it just opens the assistant and doesn't add anything to it - and I'm looking at an item I want to buy on the Bing shopping page. Horrible.
