Steve your information with regards to Mywebseach toolbar is very interesting. I clicked and lowered the menu on my websearch tool bar and noticed that an option there gives me a chance to "uninstall" it. Since I always prefer to google "everything actually", and do not use this websearch feature, my question to you then, is, what are the pros and cons in your opinion if I were to uninstall this feature? After all, the malware/greyware infections that I have reported have come through my websearch tool bar. I noted that there are numerous other features in my websearch tool bar which I sometime google, so since I do not use mywebsearch too bar to search for any of the feature shown therein, I am just thinking that perhaps I should ask you the question of uninstalling it. Thanks Steve, I will wait for whenever you have time to give my your advise.
