Where does BabyNameReady Toolbar come from?
The PUP could be traveling with bundled software installers of other unreliable programs, for example, adware, browser hijackers, and so on. Our researchers say such setup files might be promoted via annoying pop-up advertisements, banners, various file-sharing web pages, etc. This is why to stay away from questionable applications such as BabyNameReady Toolbar it would be smart to avoid untrustworthy advertising content and download software only from legitimate web pages. Besides, we could suggest installing a legitimate antimalware tool as it might alert you about potentially dangerous applications or other suspicious content.
How does BabyNameReady Toolbar work?
The moment BabyNameReady Toolbar gets in the user may notice that his default browser is now loading or redirecting to search.myway.com when it is launched; when the user starts a new search or opens a new tab. There is a chance that, by doing so, the PUP might try to generate advertising revenue from user’s clicks. Our researchers say the application could do this by showing advertisements from various third parties. The reason we think this might be possible is that the mentioned search engine redirects to a modified google.com, and so it is possible it could inject search results during the redirection.
Thus, the results you receive could be a bit different from the results you should get while using the original Google search engine. The extension might start injecting them with ads only after some time as BabyNameReady Toolbar may need to collect particular information about your browser habits first in order to be able to display targeted advertisements. In case this happens, it would be advisable to stay away from suspicious ads as there are no guarantees they cannot originate from potentially dangerous web pages, for example, sites asking to participate in fake surveys, offering to install fake updates, suggesting getting adware or even malicious tools, etc.
