Mediaget Toolbar is a toolbar/ adware created by Conduit. Mediaget Toolbar comes bundled together with other software products and installs a BHO Browser Helper Object on the targeted computer. By using a BHO, Mediaget Toolbar does not need any external software product as installer to run along the web browser including Internet Explorer, Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox. Mediaget Toolbar uses the BHO to display pop-up messages and insert unwanted advertisements in the websites the affected PC user visits. MediaGet Toolbar can also substitute the default homepage and default search engine with Search.conduit.com to make money from raised traffic and the pay-per-click technique. MediaGet Toolbar delivers various annoying advertisements, pushes suspicious advertising websites and doubtful search engines to benefit from them.
