If your home page has been changed to search.conduit.com, it is likely that you have installed the DivX Toolbar. Of course, you may also have installed a number of other Conduit plugins, including Iminent Toolbar, VisualBee Toolbar or Sweetdreams-49. All of these toolbars have been developed to promote third-party content, including the Registry Mechanic and TuneUp Utilities 2013, as well as Conduit search plugins. Some of these programs are set for an automatic installation, which is why some researchers call the toolbar a malicious browser hijacker. Our researchers are not as peremptory; however, we still recommend having DivX Toolbar deleted. Do you want to learn more about the plugin or how to remove undesirable search tools? Then you should continue reading.
The official website of DivX Toolbar is divx.ourtoolbar.com; however, some Windows users may also recognize the name of the potentially unwanted program because of the DivX Browser Bar available from divx.com. Note that this particular browser plugin is also relatable to Conduit, and we recommend its removal. The Conduit’s community extension is slightly different in representation, as its toolbar displays the Cool2 name. Nevertheless, your attention should be focused on the search tools installed alongside. If you have checked all of the wrong boxes during the installation, your home page should be set to search.conduit.com, and your default search provider must be switched to DivX Customized Web Search. Should you these tools? We recommend that you delete them instead of trusting because the search results provided through these tools will be filtered with questionable adverts displayed up front.
Do you want to run DivX Toolbar and the search tools linked to it? Then we recommend that you install automatic spyware detection and removal tools to make sure that schemers do not employ Conduit products for malware infiltration. Needless to say, the removal tools should be activated even if you are running other search tools. Once appropriate care is ensured, you can delete DivX Toolbar manually.
