APlusGamer Toolbar, otherwise known as APlusGamer Internet Explorer Toolbar, is a PUP (potentially unwanted program) created by Mindspark Interactive Network. Throughout installation, APlusGamer Toolbar may create a startup registration point in Windows in order to be automatically launched when the PC user starts the computer system. After installation, APlusGamer Toolbar may add a Windows Service which is created to launch continuously in the background. Manually stopping the service may cause APlusGamer Toolbar to stop functioning properly. APlusGamer Toolbar may add a background controller service that is set to automatically load. Delaying the start of this service is possible through the service manager. APlusGamer Toolbar may embed a toolbar into Microsoft Internet Explorer. APlusGamer Toolbar may be generated to create and display non-stop ads and, thus, aim to benefit from clicks on advertisements.
