MapsGalaxy Toolbar

What is MapsGalaxy Toolbar?

MapsGalaxy Toolbar is a browser plugin which has been developed by Mindspark Interactive Network, Inc. The company is well known for creating applications for Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox browsers. Some of the plugins that Anti-Spyware-101.com researchers have reported in the past include Vacation Xplorer, TotalRecipeSearch Toolbar and Gaming Wonderland Toolbar. Even though all of these programs are quite beneficial if you are looking for specific information, you must recognize that they have been created to promote Ask Search tools as well. Luckily, the offer to change your home page and search provider settings is not mandatory and you can refuse the changes during the installation process. Unfortunately, IE and Firefox users are often careless when installing software, and so they eventually discover potentially unwanted programs installed onto their computers.

How does MapsGalaxy Toolbar act?

The official page representing the toolbar is mapsgalaxy.com, and here the browser plugin is presented as a tool which can help you ‘go anywhere with your free maps and directions’. What does the toolbar offer? If you install it onto the browsers you are exposed to easy-access links to Map Search, Map Links (e.g. Satellite Maps or NASA Maps), Traffic news, Yellow Pages, Facebook, online Radio and Ask search. Without a doubt, you may forget about these supposedly useful services if your browser settings have been modified and you are not happy about it. If you paid no attention to the information presented on the installation setup, it is likely that your home page has been changed to home.tb.ask.com and the search provider has been switched to Ask Web Search (search.tb.ask.com).

The Ask search home page does not look unreliable. In fact, many users are likely to trust the suspicious search engine because it provides links to Gmail, Yahoo mail, Instagram, Pinterest, Twitter, etc. Despite this, the search engine provides advertisement-supported search results which often cannot provide you with information related to your search queries. Do you want to replace Ask Search tools and delete MapsGalaxy Toolbar? These tasks are not that complicated.
