+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #867333 +++

yet another Conduit Toolbar. mywebsearch. Seems to be using the name of another nasty, MyWebsearch by Mindspark. Changes user settings via an opt-out pref in the installer, doesn't use about:newaddon, and doesn't revert settings upon uninstall. 

ID: {13c9f1f9-2322-4d5c-81df-6d4bf8476ba4}
Does that mean that it isn't the same MyWebSearch? Do we know anything else about it?
This is from ourtoolbar.com, and seems to be using mywebsearch's name to try to spread this toolbar. ourtoolbar.com has alot of these clones.
