"Great toolbar for IE users."
Version: Yahoo Toolbar with Anti-Spy 5.5.5
Pros
This is one of the best toolbars you could ever use. It comes with a great pop-up blocker, a spyware remover, and a search engine. All the things you need to make your IE experience better.
Cons
Why would there be cons?

"Great Spyware remover"
Version: Yahoo Toolbar with Anti-Spy 5.5.5
Pros
The toolbar isnt much use to me (as i use Avant not IE), but the Anti-spyware that comes with it is great. My computer runs really fast now that I have removed the spyware that it has found.
Cons
Beware, some of the cookies it finds can screw up your internet. I'd advise you to only delete non-cookie related spyware and leave cookie removing to the internet options on your browser.

"Great Idea! Works well... easy to use... updates when run every time!"
Version: Yahoo Toolbar with Anti-Spy 5.5.5
Pros
Yahoo! has outdone themselves! This is the best idea I have seen in a toolbar. It works well, and it is easy to use. I even put a link to it in my Quick Launch area on my Windows taskbar.
It does its job well, alerting users to spyware, and giving recommendations. It also checks for updates every time it is started up.

"god but not powerful"
Version: Yahoo Toolbar with Anti-Spy 5.5.5
Pros
Nice and easy to use, like all the shortcuts and they are useful. One of the quickest scans I ever seen! Although it only scans common locations.
Cons
antispyware is too unuseful I ran trendmicro antispyware online and it detected 8 adware on my computer that it couldn't in 1/3 of the scan! and besides, who needs this toolbar with antispy when you have google toolbar with lot's more functions plus a free antispyware like spybot-search and destroy and adaware personal

"Overall good toolbar to use"
Version: Yahoo Toolbar with Anti-Spy 5.5.5
Pros
I am very satisfied with the ease of everything being one click away right there when I need it.
Cons
I think the pop up blocker could use an upgrade, it didn't always catch pop ups coming through and I always had to keep enabling it.

"DON'T DOWNLOAD!"
Version: Yahoo Toolbar with Anti-Spy 5.5.5
Pros
Nothing!
Cons
I downloaded it, it's on my hard drive now, but I can't use it, and worst of all, I can't get rid of it!

"If anything use google toolbar.."
Version: Yahoo Toolbar with Anti-Spy 5.5.5
Pros
Just the search and popup blocker....
Cons
First of all its yahoo. Yahoo isnt a very good company exept there free emails. There search engine is nothing to google. The anti-spyware. Anti-spy is stupid it detects to much stuff that isnt even spyware. screwed up everything I dont recommend it. Anti spy is too aggressive to the point were it detects your antivirus program as a heavy spyware. The popup blocker is ok and decent. The search bar in my opinon isnt very good but it gets the job done.
