What is CrazyForCraft Toolbar?

CrazyForCraft Toolbar is an unreliable program that you should not keep on your PC. It offers useful features for crafters, such as free quilting and woodworking patterns. But at the same time it hijacks your browser and sets an untrustworthy search engine as your default. Even the creators of this program consider it an unsecure application, so waste no time and remove the toolbar from your computer. test test test

Where does CrazyForCraft Toolbar come from?

The toolbar could be downloaded from its official website at crazyforcrafts.com. However, it is unlikely that you land on this website purposely. The research team at Anti-spyware-101.com has found that this toolbar is usually distributed in software bundles. Please note that CrazyForCraft Toolbar is powered by Ask.com. If you install the toolbar from its official source, you see an offer to make Ask.com your default homepage and search engine. We do not recommend that you accept this offer as this search engine is not legitimate. Third-parties outsource it, and no one can ensure whether you will find correct results to your search queries, or you will be provided with third-party links to unreliable websites. Please note that when the CrazyForCraft Toolbar is distributed bundled with other applications, it usually comes to the computers without user notification. Thus, they miss an opportunity to decline Ask.com and then find their homepages and search engines changed without their knowledge. We do not think that such activity by this toolbar should be tolerated.

How does CrazyForCraft Toolbar act?

CrazyForCraft Toolbar is a product developed by Mindspark Interactive Network, Inc. Recently, we turned our attention to some other toolbars developed by this company, including WebmailWorld Toolbar, and TypingFanatic Toolbar. What unites most of the products coming from the Mindspark family is that they could be “exposed to various security issues.” Mindspark even makes no secret about this, as the abovementioned words are written in the EULA and Privacy Policy of each product developed by this company. So, by continuing to use CrazyForCraft Toolbar, you may put your virtual security in danger. You could encounter content generated by third parties, content which may be “offensive, indecent or objectionable in your community.” It could even be malicious as well, so eliminate all the possible risks by removing the toolbar.

CrazyForCraft Toolbar removal

You can delete the program from your program list via Control Panel. But this will only eliminate the unwanted extensions from the Internet Explorer browser. You will have to remove manually the CrazyForCraft extension if you use Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox. As has been mentioned, Ask.com is not the search engine that security-minded users should keep on their devices. So, we have prepared a detailed guide that will show how to get rid of the bad toolbar, the unwanted extensions, and the suspicious search engine. Of course, you can use a trustworthy antimalware detection tool to wipe out all the intruders. Keep it updated to the latest version, and no single infection will slither into your system.
