UPDATE
Looks like I am wrong and you will have to use the CSS to hide the style bar. It does feel a lot like a hack, but it has proven to be one that we have used out of a desire for some practicality in the developement costs.
Bugger!

You can edit the vwstyles.xml file in the 12 hive (C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\12\TEMPLATE\GLOBAL\XML). This controls exactly how the views look. Unfortunately it is very ugly xml to render html.
I recommend you create your own vwstyle in the xml and set the style of the view to use the newly created one.
