Try the following steps to get rid of the toolbar - 

 

1) Go to a blank area in your toolbar and right click which will bring up a toolbar menu (try clicking another blank area if the first does not work) Uncheck any toolbar you do not want to use. Having too many is a very bad idea as everyone of them can clash with another and they all slow down your computer 

2) Go to the Add or Remove Programs in your Control Panel and look for anything to do with Iwin and uninstall it. 

3) Try a good anti-malware program like Malwarebytes (also to be found free through CNET's Download.com). 

Don't forget to reboot after steps B or C

 

Hope this helps.
