About 4shared Toolbar?
This software installs a Conduit powered OurToolbar in Internet Explorer, Chrome, and Firefox web browsers. The toolbar collects and stores information about the user's web browsing activities and transmits this data to OurToolbar in order to offer customized services and display ads. It comes with a search box and other standard features. The toolbar may attempt to change the user's home page and search provider during installation, and is typically bundled as an optional addition with the free 4shared program. Even if the 4shared program is uninstalled, the toolbar may remain on the user's PC and must be manually removed.
