About MapsGalaxy Internet Explorer Toolbar?
The MapsGalaxy Internet Explorer Toolbar is a web browser extension that offers users the ability to search the Internet. However, it comes bundled with the potentially unwanted program MyWebSearch, which can change search results, redirect DNS errors, and modify the user's home page to mywebsearch.com. MyWebSearch also overrides the default search service and tracks user internet behavior for targeted advertising. Similarly, the MetroCast Toolbar is an ad-supported web browser plugin that is distributed through various monetization platforms during installation. It includes features that can modify the default or custom settings of the browser, such as the home page and search settings. Some of the changes that the toolbar can make include altering the default search engine, changing the home page, adding alternative "page not found" functionality, and enabling search from the address bar.
