Zoo Toolbar is a browser extension developed by InfoSpace LLC. Zoo Toolbar is known to be a PUP (potentially unwanted program), adware or browser hijacker. Zoo Toolbar may embed itself into Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, and Mozilla Firefox Web browsers using tricky advertising tactics. Zoo Toolbar may be installed on the computer system packaged with other free programs that PC users can download from untrustworthy download websites. Once installed, Zoo Toolbar may alter the default browser settings on the computer system. Zoo Toolbar may substitute the default start page, search provider or a new tab page with Isearch.zoo.com. Zoo Toolbar may show disturbing pop-up advertisements and notifications that, if clicked, may unwillingly divert computer users to unreliable websites or install other security infections to the PC.
