Security experts deem the RetroGamer Toolbar by Mindspark Interactive Network Inc. as a potentially unwanted program (PUP) and alternative to its other product, the IWON toolbar. The RetroGamer Toolbar is advertised as a retro gaming platform, and interested users should be noted that the primary function of the toolbar is to help marketers generate tailor-suited ads on Search.myway.com/home/index.jhtml. The RetroGamer Toolbar features a search bar that is programmed to load results from earch.myway.com/home/index.jhtml and ads related to your browsing history. The ads on Search.myway.com/home/index.jhtml may appear as sponsored links, pop-up, and pop-under windows as well as coupons and exclusive deals. The RetroGamer Toolbar may include a button that allows you to share your gaming experience with your friends on Facebook. However, you may want to avoid using it because Mindspark may wish to access your profile and post on your behalf. You ought to consider removing the RetroGamer Toolbar with the help of a trusted anti-malware tool.
