More and more toolbars see the light of day every day, which are useful and reliable at the same time; however, PackageTracer Toolbar is not one of those as it has proved to be a bad toolbar when researched by our specialists at Anti-Spyware-101.com.

OptiSpace

OptiSpace is a tremendously suspicious program that users usually know very little about.
