12 toolbars in your browser

:rolleyes: Ugh terrible, I've come across this myself with friends and some old family relatives I caught up with but no where near as bad haha!

This happens because one is ignorant/clueless and clicks Next > Next > Next as fast as possible when installing software therefor any bundled toolbar offers or 'crapware' gets installed along with the software you want install.

I myself have never liked toolbars even back in the early days, They slowed down browsing and browser start up times, tab loading times etc so it makes sense why her Internet has crawled to a slow.

Thanks.

Toolbars are pre-installed software which the manufacturer was paid to include but which is of frigall value to the purchaser
 
Some of my customers even had more then 12 toolbars installed to IE.

This is what happens when you don't read when installing products, you end up with a bunch of crap that just slows down your browser and add privacy concerns.

The best improvements to IE allows you to easily disable them even if you can't get them to uninstall. In the days of IE6 and before toolbars were a major problem to get rid of.

Thanks.:D
