iMesh Toolbar is a browser add-on which allegedly allows you to “listen to free and legal music”. The package is available in nine different languages, including Portuguese or Italian, and offers you such additional programs as the Search-Results Toolbar, iMesh media player and Torch browser. The official download page of this package is imesh.com and many computer users have already downloaded the program onto their operating systems. Nevertheless, you should be extremely cautious about installing any kind of unfamiliar programs onto the computer. One of the reasons you may want to delete iMesh Toolbar from your browsers is its ability to track your browsing activity and collect personal information:
