What is connectSo Toolbar?

ConnectSo Toolbar is a Conduit-based browser extension, which works on Internet Explorer, Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox. The application is available at connectso.ourtoolbar.com, and if you have just acquired the toolbar from this source, we recommend that you remove it from the PC. At first sight, the application may seem useful because it contains links to Instagram and Facebook, but you can add the links to these websites to your browser’s bookmark toolbar and access the websites without any risk.  ConnectSo Toolbar also contains links to two websites.testtest 100% FREE spyware scan and

Additionally, the toolbar advertises Price Gong and Value Apps. Price Gong is a browser add-on which monitors the user’s actions on the Internet and displays search-based coupons and advertisement. The term Value Apps refers to several applications similar to Price Gong. They include CouponBuddy, Last Minute Booking and Hotel Recommendations. Of course, there are more programs that belong to Value Apps. The applications are not associated with the websites that are advertised; they are not responsible for pricing errors and the damage that may be caused. If you want to prevent irrelevant advertising content and other adverse consequences, do not activate those programs.

How does ConnectSo Toolbar work?

Any toolbar is supposed to enhance your browsing experience; however, ConnectSo Toolbar does not seem to be one of them. If you do not deselect particular boxes when installing the application, the home page of the browser is changed to search.conduit.com, whereas the default search engine is changes to ConnectSo Customized Web Search. When the changes are made, it is impossible not to notice that the search engine displays advertisements on the startup page. The advertisements belong to third parties, and if you have any complains about them, then you have to provide them to the third party. We recommend that you disregard the advertisements displayed at search.conduit.com in order to prevent recommendations to take part in surveys or to download computer programs. It is important that you interact only with reliable websites; otherwise, you may not like the consequences.
