DeskBar Toolbar
PC power users may be intrigued to install the DeskBar Toolbar because it claims to improve their search capabilities online and on their computer. The DeskBar Toolbar is developed by Blue Labs, LLC as an advanced search tool and can be downloaded from Desk.bar and acquired via free software packages. The DeskBar software functions similarly to the Desktop Search program from Unique Solutions, but uses the Bing engine instead of Google while placing a toolbar at the top of your desktop as well. Security experts warn users that the DeskBar toolbar by Blue Labs is supported by advertisements, and you should expect to see contextual and transitional ads, pop-up windows and banners brought by DeskBar. Therefore, the DeskBar toolbar is deemed as a Potentially Unwanted Program that may obstruct your Intent activities by displaying many ads and slowing down your Internet browser. The DeskBar software may install a browser plug-in to show advertisements while you surf the Internet. The DeskBar software may edit your Windows Registry to launch a background process at system boot-up and use web beacons to show personalized commercials. Computer users that decide to keep the DeskBar toolbar should take into consideration that BlueLabs uses third-party services to load ads, and yo may be redirected to insecure online resources. You may want to remove the DeskBar toolbar with the help of a credible anti-malware instrument and prevent security issues.
