    "Best toolbar I've used"

    February 12, 2009  |   By jimmy222009

    Version: Yahoo Toolbar with Anti-Spy 5.5.5

    Pros

    Everything is easy to read and convenient to use. It's easy to add and, if necessary, remove buttons. And I've found Yahoo Search easy to use.

    Cons

    There is nothing that I can think of that I don't like about Yahoo Toolbar.

    Summary

    I stumbled on this review by accident while looking to download Yahoo Toolbar. I had noticed in my programs that it had been downloaded twice and was attempting to remove one listing from the programs and ended up removing the toolbar. I don't think I could function without Yahoo Toolbar.

    Version: Yahoo Toolbar with Anti-Spy 5.5.5

    Pros

    I have used Yahoo Toolbar for (3) years and...It Really Does (Beat) all The Others Out-There!No continuous Nagging to download as: Googles always does.The Anti-Spy is very effective and can be located when you set your ToolBar download items/preferences.A Faithful partner when you "Just need a good ole Reliable...Resource.

    Cons

    Color changes if you go off line and return needs a memory-Bank to keep this set to original chioce.But with "Yahoo" they will surely take care of this in the near future.Semper-Fi

    "Searches Yahoo, if you prefer that. But I dont see the AntiSpyware protection."

    January 24, 2006  |   By CableguyTK

    Version: Yahoo Toolbar with Anti-Spy 5.5.5

    Pros

    Its free.

    It searches Yahoo!, if you prefer Yahoo instead of Google.

    It comes with AntiSpyware protection apparently.

    Yahoo! Web is built in, which lets you quickly cache your own webpages.

    Yahoo! Mail is built in, which lets you quickly log in to your Yahoo! Mail.

    It has profiles. Login with your Yahoo! account and it will load the toolbar layout you setup in your account preferences.

    Cons

    Toolbar customization is all remotely done on the server. Yahoo!'s server tells the toolbar how to appear. There is really no local customization element like Google Toolbar has.

    Theres apparently AntiSpyware protection but I can't find it. Im sure its not as sophisticated as, say, Microsoft AntiSpyware or Webroot Spysweeper.

    A little more bloated than Google Toolbar.

    "put it this way"

    January 15, 2006  |   By Ericstar

    Version: Yahoo Toolbar with Anti-Spy 5.5.5

    Pros

    Its a decent toolbar pop up blocking is ok but not even nearly as good as the IE one. its good if you use the yahoo a lot but the big difference in this toolbar is it has antispyware which scanning engine is supposedly like pestpatrol i have heard.

    Cons

    Pop up blocker isnt good and antispyware scans to fast to be doing much and updates are very rare like once every 2 months.
