I've always been really careful all kind of the toolbars because they will appear from nowhere if you're not very careful when you install something new, and especially freeware programs!

"The good news: the number of pure malware or adware toolbars has been decreasing by far."

but even still they will appear...several times!

Nice article

For many years now, I've been pushing the pri-sec community to collectively target the spyware known as bundled toolbars. I think many anti-spyware devs are AFRAID to target them even tho they know that the behavior of these nasties exceeds their published criteria for targeting.

I found this page encouraging; http://www.emsisoft.com/en/kb/articles/tec120110/

Nice article, thanks Mike.
