About uTorrentBar Toolbar?

The uTorrentBar Toolbar is a browser extension developed by Conduit (now known as OurToolbar Community) designed for Internet Explorer and Firefox. This toolbar is designed to customize the user's browsing experience by collecting and storing information about their web habits and using this data to suggest services or provide targeted advertising via the toolbar.
