Speedtray Removal Guide

There are many programs that can help you to check the speed of your Internet Connection. Speedtray is one of them; however, we do not recommend installing it on your computer because it is definitely not the most reliable program. The security experts at 411-spyware.com have even found out that Speedtray is a typical advertising-supported application. It means that it will show commercial advertisements instead of helping you to check your connection’s speed. As there are many other programs which act as they promise, we believe that you should remove Speedtray without further consideration. You can remove the program via Control Panel; however, if you do not think that you will be able to get rid of this unwanted program yourself, we recommend reading through this article.

Speedtray belongs to Lyrics family and it is going to flood your Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, and Mozilla Firefox with ads like other programs from the same family.

It does not really matter which types of ads you see because we still suggest ignoring them. Of course, you should stop them from appearing as well. As you have probably understood, the easiest way to do that is to remove the program from the system.

Speedtray adds a process in the Task Manager to display advertisements; however, our researchers have also found out that this program might collect information about a user’s online habits.
