I ( and I believe most ) use a method in their appilcation object to get rid of them on startup then restore if necessary on shutdown. The code I use is below and was taken directly from the MS Tastrade application object with perhaps some minor tayloring to my situation:

*-- Releases all Visual FoxPro toolbars
LOCAL i

*-- Toolbar names
#DEFINE TB_FORMDESIGNER_LOC  "Form Designer"
#DEFINE TB_STANDARD_LOC      "Standard"
#DEFINE TB_LAYOUT_LOC        "Layout"
#DEFINE TB_QUERY_LOC        "Query Designer"
#DEFINE TB_VIEWDESIGNER_LOC  "View Designer"
#DEFINE TB_COLORPALETTE_LOC  "Color Palette"
#DEFINE TB_FORMCONTROLS_LOC  "Form Controls"
#DEFINE TB_DATADESIGNER_LOC  "Database Designer"
#DEFINE TB_REPODESIGNER_LOC  "Report Designer"
#DEFINE TB_REPOCONTROLS_LOC  "Report Controls"
#DEFINE TB_PRINTPREVIEW_LOC  "Print Preview"

DIMENSION this.aToolBars[10,2]
this.aToolBars[1,1] = TB_FORMDESIGNER_LOC
this.aToolBars[2,1] = TB_STANDARD_LOC  
this.aToolBars[3,1] = TB_LAYOUT_LOC
this.aToolBars[4,1] = TB_QUERY_LOC
this.aToolBars[5,1] = TB_VIEWDESIGNER_LOC
this.aToolBars[6,1] = TB_COLORPALETTE_LOC  
this.aToolBars[7,1] = TB_FORMCONTROLS_LOC
this.aToolBars[8,1] = TB_DATADESIGNER_LOC
this.aToolBars[9,1] = TB_REPODESIGNER_LOC
this.aToolBars[10,1] = TB_REPOCONTROLS_LOC

*this.aToolBars[11,1] = TB_PRINTPREVIEW_LOC

FOR i = 1 TO ALEN(this.aToolBars, 1)
	this.aToolBars[i,2] = WVISIBLE(this.aToolBars[i,1])
	IF this.aToolBars[i,2]
		HIDE WINDOW (this.aToolBars[i,1])
	ENDIF
ENDFOR
