   I don't have a problem with toolbars themselves. Most of them anyways. Yes some of them are just adware/spyware junk.
   
   My problem with them is that companies, like Google, install them automatically or if not automatically set to install by default.
   
   They slow down the browser and I am sick of removing them all the time. Thankfully it has gotten a lot easier these days to remove them.
   
   Thank God they are banned in Chrome. Now if only IE and FF would ban them too.

   So let me get this straight:
   
   I should install and run a toolbar that phones home continuously, allows tracking of my whereabouts and search criteria for ad purposes to be sold to the highest bidder, is a SERIOUS privacy violation from a company with the worst privacy record imaginable and in general is just a candy-coated piece of malware?
   
   Right.
   
   And the worst part is that so many users are running (not walking) down the "Too Stupid To Live" road to install and run it.
   
   It's a pity there is no negative rating.
   
   Avoid anything and everything form this company. As a security analyst, I can only way that their practices are despicable.

   I really, REALLY don't know who and why invented adding toolbars to the browsers. It's totally useless! USELESS. It doesn't even diserve a one star in my book. ANY browser toolbar.
