How do I get rid of the Google search bar in IE?

[Participant]

I'm talking about this:

Pointless as far as I can tell, as searching directly in the address bar has the same affect yet doesn't save your last search .

The problem is that if I've been searching for something like a present I want it to be private, and of course I don't want my last smut search to be saved for all to see .

Any ideas as to how to get rid of it? Thanks .

If you don't want your smut searches and viewing to be seen select InPrivate Browsing from the Safety menu for the duration of your search/viewing then close the window.

To hide the search window:
