  "BEWARE!!! Malware! Impossible to Remove!!!"

  December 6, 2008  |   By macquid

  Version: Ask Toolbar 4.0.1.1

  Pros

  The only thing I would "like" is to find a way to uninstall this WORM
  
  The people behind Ask Toolbar belong in prison!

  Cons

  EXACTLY, IT'S A CON!!!
  Do a Google search with the term "Ask Toolbar" and see what 1000s and 1000s and 1000s, etc. of people are saying about this vicious junk...
  
  And Ask Toolbar targets websites used by kids too, TRICKING them to sign up. SCUM!

  Summary

  BOTTOM LINE IS THAT CNET download.com shouldn't provide a download link for this product.
  
  Makes one wonder whether CNET and download.com have other links to other MALWARE or the like?
