Got Spyware? - Filebar is a program
that you do not want |
I was at really cool looking
freeware/shareware site and I saw an Internet
Explorer toolbar program called Filebar that I might want
to review. The toolbar was written specifcally for the website and
sponsored by them. I downloaded it and did
my typical scans on it. I then fired up my TUN and proceeded to install
it. Lo and behold, my AVG screamed
and my startup
monitor hollered at me. I was very suprised. My protections
had saved me from a program that was chock full of Spyware. I wrote
the webmaster and got no response. I can only assume that they are fully
aware of the crap they are trying to foist off on us. The bottom line is,
I strongly warn everyone to stay away from this website. I also want to
warn you to be very cautious about installing any toolbar program for
Internet Explorer. Some of them are great, but many of them are
spyware.
