CNET Editors' review
This free Internet Explorer add-on lets you search the Web and protect your privacy while surfing, though some of its claims were unsubstantiated in our tests. TheOpenWorld.com Toolbar is easily added to your browser window and offers quick access to Web sites like eBay, Amazon, iTunes Store, Shopping.com, and BBC News for Internet lookups.
Fast-access buttons let you check out booking and flight rates at British Airways' official site and offer the latest headline news from the BBC. TheOpenWorld.com Toolbar program also includes the standard extras like a pop-up blocker, browser and search history cleaner, e-mail notification, weather forecasts, and toolbar customization options, which all worked well during testing.
The publisher claims the toolbar gives users updated information about the Web sites they visit, but we didn't find any evidence of this feature. All in all, TheOpenWorld.com Toolbar isn't a bad choice, but it offers nothing special among the numerous free toolbars for Internet Explorer.
