Quero Toolbar

5.0 stars

"One of the few toolbars that actually doesn't suck."

June 7, 2011  |   By Atomic1fire

Version: Quero Toolbar 6.0

Pros

Increased control over IE9's navigation,
Adblock, and you can also get a seperate optional TPL file for complete adblock in IE9, which is how I first learned of quero, and snazzy theming options that while not complete, supplement a few tastes.

Cons

I have some feature requests, but there are not too many cons about this, it's a toolbar that actually serves a purpose, not just a search engine advertisement because it sports a wide number of search engines.

Summary

The abillity to add extra buttons, like weather, simular to bing toolbar would be nice, but it's already a deal breaker if you are looking for a addon that gives you more control over IE9, and gives you an adblocker/flash blocker this might be the toolbar for you.

"Excellent IE toolbar with IE9 64 bit support"

April 20, 2011  |   By iwillneverstop

Version: Quero Toolbar 6.0

Pros

- Working with latest IE, Windows 7 (come to the author web site for more download options)
- Ad blocker
- Navigation bar replacement
... and many other cool features

Cons

None, up to now, I can't find one.

Summary

The best toolbar for IE I've ever known. With many cool features such as Ads Blocker (better than Ads Block Plus on Firefox) , Navigation bar replacement (looks like Google Chrome), Highlight search terms, Customize toolbar appearance (plus Aero Theme), ..., Quero Toolbar makes me happier with my IE9 64bit. Give it a try and spend sometime playing with its option, some IE tips and installation instructions, you will never be sorry.

"The new version is awesome."

January 22, 2010  |   By bobbyphoenix

Version: Quero Toolbar 4.5.0.1

Pros

Now open source. Keep checking the official website for updates. Now can be used for just the ad blocking. Has a great phishing tool.

Cons

Doesn't block 100% of adds like Adblock plus for FF, but I would say about 99.2% of them. Best tool/add-on I have found.

Summary

I always liked IE, but the ads just killed me. This is by far the best tool out there for IE. Has many other features that can add to an overall better IE experience.

"needs adblock ONLY option -- no toolbar desired"

July 4, 2009  |   By adssuckband

Version: Quero Toolbar 4.5.0.1

Pros

* appears to be free
* works in IE8
* blocks ads in IE8
* does not require dot NET -- unlike adblock IE

Cons

* not clear WHY/HOW it is free
* developer agenda not clear

Summary

I would rate it higher if it had an adblock only install for IE8. I am not a fan of toolbars. I don't like search hijacking.

"Blocks too many items!!!!!"

December 23, 2008  |   By jdriley2002

Version: Quero Toolbar 4.2

Pros

Blocks unwanted banner and flash ads

Cons

The program blocks flash items that people normally use on websites, such as news events on wmur.com and flash-based games on games.yahoo.com

Summary

This program might be useful for people who never play on Yahoo! Games or their news sites don't have flash-based tickers, but for everyone else, DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS PRODUCT!!!!!
