I really don’t understand why some people feel the need to quietly install adware programs on your PC. Do they really think that bombarding me with pop-up ads will really make me click on the link and buy the product? I spent quite some time trying to remove Hotbar from my notebook. I thought Lavasoft Ad-Aware was enough to get rid of it, but a quick Google search turned up a simple set of instructions to completely eliminate the program. Thanks alot!
