Where does RecipeSearch Toolbar come from?

RecipeSearch Toolbar was developed by Mindspark Interactive Network, Inc.; therefore, it belongs to the so-called Mindspark family of toolbars. This plugin is very similar to other members of this family including Webfetti Toolbar and AudioToAudio Toolbar. You can easily install RecipeSearch Toolbar from its official website, downloadrecipesearch.com. However, you need to be careful if you do not want your browser settings modified.
