Version: AltaVista Toolbar 1
"Don't Download It! It sucks!"
Cons: This program is terrible. Upon installing it my computer was plagued with furious popups that not one of my three popup blockers could keep down (I have the Google Toolbar, the Yahoo! Antispy Toolbar, Pop-Up Stopper Free Edition). Websites such as "qwikfind", "nester", "partypokeronline""heavy", and many more interrupted my programs and shut down my open windows. AVG Anti-Virus detected a trojan horse hidden as a temporary file. I would never recommend this program to anyone, not even if they paid me! I have always trusted CNET and their product reviews, but something was very wrong with the AltaVista toolbar. Besides my popup blockers I own and run Norton Anti-Virus, AOL Active Security Monitor, Spybot- Search & Destroy, Spyware Doctor, and Ewido Anti-spyware 4.0- I don't even need all those programs, but after what AltaVista did to my computer who can tell?
