This run-of-the-mill toolbar is easily configured, but offers no surprises and few benefits. LGTV Toolbar follows the standard buttons and pull-down menus of toolbars created with ourtoolbar.com. While functions and options are easily learned and configured by novices, advanced users may find the freeware toolbar too basic.

LGTV Toolbar defaults to the standard e-mail notifier, search box, RSS headline reader, weather button, and Internet radio station selector. Except for the search box, all components are easily removed or returned using check boxes under Toolbar Options. Adding simple gadgets is easily accomplished through drag and drop. However, it takes some experience with Internet radio streams to add stations to the pull-down menu.

LGTV Toolbar offers very little over the default Firefox functions. While novice users might want to try it, experienced users won't want to waste the space with this average add-on.

Publisher's Description

From LGTV:

How's it different from all those other toolbars, I hear you cry. Well as well as the Google search feature we have: see how many e-mails you have straight from your browser; get a 5 day weather forecast for where you actually live and not the nearest city; get the latest news and sport headlines straight from the toolbar; pop-up blocker; links direct to all pages on our Web site; built-in radio to listen to 10+ BBC stations; you can also add links to your favourite programs once you've downloaded the toolbar.
