How to replace text with [] around it?

I have a document that has the time or the date and time enclosed in [ ] at the start of every line as per below.

[12:14:16 PM] ld asdd sdad
[25/03/2013 10:35:45 AM] sds dssdffd sdfsdf

All dates and times are different. I wish to delete the [] and everything in between them. I have tried using wild card replacing but have not been successful.

How do I go about doing this?

Bob
