How to disable WIndows Sidebar permanently?

On Vista - I have used the properties of the sidebar to turn it off, close the sidebar and even went into Control Panel and disabled in the Startup tab - but this shit guard opened when I restart the computer - and it takes forever to load. I prefer much the Yahoo Widgets, so I REALLY want to get rid of the sidebar.

Any ideas how?

Thank you!!!

I had the same problem with sidebar and went to support.microsoft.com/kb/2179662. Typed in the support page 'how to cut sidebar.exe in win7. Went at the bottom of page and was offered 2 options, 1-click on the fix - it button, or click on to turn it off. It worked for that day without any problem.
