InternetSpeedUtility Toolbar

InternetSpeedUtility Toolbar is not the toolbar you were hoping it would be. Maybe you were surprised to discover it one morning when you booted up your PC. If want to remove this toolbar, then you have come to the right website. Tests have shown that the toolbar is both useless and malicious, useless in the sense that its functionality is barely tolerable, and malicious due to the modified search results it provides. We will discuss this and other things throughout this article, so, if you want to remove InternetSpeedUtility Toolbar, please continue reading.

Mindspark Interactive Network, Inc., is the company responsible for creating this excuse for an application. We have a long list of malicious toolbars that have been released by this company. Video Scavenger Toolbar, Zwinky Toolbar, RetroGamer toolbar, and many others are all products of Mindspark. Oftentimes, we see Mindspark toolbars being bundled with malicious software. However, we have no information about InternetSpeedUtility Toolbar’s being distributed via malware bundles. Nevertheless, the application can be downloaded from its website, called Internetspeedutility.net.

The website claims that the primary purpose of the toolbar is to discover issues regarding Internet speed and monitor your internet connection. The toolbar will not help you discover any Internet connection-related issues, because it uses a simple internet speed test, which cannot detect complex problems. It will only serve to show you when there is no connection at all. But that is not the end of its long list of tools. No, it also contains links to various websites, such as eHow, wikiHow, Auslogics, and a few others. Note that the websites mentioned here also feature third-party advertisements, and that is one of the reasons why you should delete this toolbar.

At any rate, the list goes on. InternetSpeedUtility Toolbar has a built-in Internet radio player, which actually works, so there are no complaints about that coming from us. It also has a weather app, but it does not work. Upon installation, the toolbar automatically changes the default homepage, new tab, and search engine to a modified version of the Ask.com search engine. You should remove the application, because the search engine shows customized results that are unreliable. There is no guarantee that the developers did not favor the results of some particular websites.

If you want to remove InternetSpeedUtility Toolbar, you can follow the manual removal guide provided at the bottom or you can use an anti-malware scanner. The choice is yours. However, using an anti-malware scanner will also check and detect previously unnoticed infections, and will remove them completely, leaving no junk files.
