DVDVideoSoft Free Studio is the best full media suite available. It is much better than many paid alternatives which usually costs anywhere from $40 up to $75. Some even charge yearly subscriptions.

The only problem with DVDVideoSoft Free Studio it is ad-supported to cover the costs of development. It has nags every time you use any of its tools when you exit the program it nags you to install DVDVideoSoft Free Toolbar. The nags will continue each time with no way to stop them unless you do install DVDVideoSoft Free Toolbar.

The DVDVideoSoft Free Toolbar is powered by Conduit. The privacy policy is located here.

Conduit toolbars are not as bad as others like Ask Toolbar, but many users will have no use for them.

Here is a simple solution to get rid of the nags for the DVDVideoSoft Free Toolbar.

1. Download and install DVDVideoSoft Free Studio making sure that you have closed all of your browsers before continuing with the installation. Leave the top box selected to install DVDVideoSoft Free Toolbar, remove check form other two options.

2. Now open your browser one at a time and disable the toolbar, do NOT remove.

DVDVideoSoft Free Toolbar does not install to Opera or other browsers.

With the toolbar disabled on all of your browsers, it can not load or function.
But since it is installed, the nags will no longer appear.

You can no longer worry about the toolbar on future updates since they can not enable the toolbar again. You have to manually enable it. So you just can leave to toolbar option checked on all future installations. Toolbar nags will be gone for good!!

Note: If you remove the toolbar from one of your browsers (IE, Firefox or Google Chrome) the nags will come back again.

Enjoy!! :)
