I downloaded this Toolbar 1.0, it came with IncrediMail and didn't give me the option if I wanted it or not. It installed itself and then wanted me to change my home page, search engine everything to it & then it froze up, freezing up my computer. I had to hit control alt delete to end 3 sessions, it kept coming back. I tried hit new session, it still came back. I went to my programs I couldn't remove it there. I went into my control panel and there wasn't anything to remove. It wouldn't let me go into tools or add ons. I had to use a force uninstall to remove the **** IncrediMail came with & then I had to uninstall 4,0 and reinstall it again. 

I went to the site where I got this & there are terribel review that I should have looked at first. The guy Bobby who developed it is removing the bad reviews & leaving the good ons, but there are hardly any good ones.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Install the program
2.
3.
Actual Results:  
It did nothing it said it would do

Expected Results:  
I had to uninstall 4.0 & reinstall it
