If you want to uninstall a toolbar from the ones shown in the list, just place a checkmark in the checkbox shown next to it and then click on the Uninstall button. You can select more than one toolbars to be removed in a single go. You can actually click on the Select all link at the bottom of the list to select all the displayed toolbars.

Smart Toolbar Remover would try to run the uninstaller associated with the selected toolbars and try to remove them from your system. But if the uninstall program is missing, then you would see only an error message and will not be able to remove that toolbar. You have to restart Internet Explorer or sometimes Windows before a toolbar is fully uninstalled.
