Where does MyImageConverter Toolbar come from?

MyImageConverter Toolbar comes from the MindSpark family of browser extensions. We have been dealing with adware programs from this group for quite some time now. The latest members of the family include FindMeFreebies Toolbar, EveryLookup Toolbar, VideoConvert Toolbar, and so on. As you can probably tell from the names, each application has something unique, offering you a specific function.

What’s more, there is nothing illegal about MyImageConverter Toolbar and other similar applications because they do not slither into your computer surreptitiously. You can easily install this application yourself if you download it from myimageconverter.com. All MindSpark applications boast of functioning homepages that can tell you more about these programs. If you take a closer look at the site, you will also see that this toolbar supports the Ask Search engine. This means that if you happen to install the full version of the application, Ask Search will be set as your default homepage.

It is not much of a problem if you are aware of the fact, but sometimes MyImageConverter Toolbar could be installed on your in a software package with some other applications. This is very common when users download freeware from file sharing sites. If that is the case, then the toolbar clearly came on your PC uninvited, and you need to do something about it.

What does MyImageConverter Toolbar do?

The application does not try to infect you with malware or anything like that. The problem is that some of its features (like the additional search engine, for example) may inadvertently expose you to unreliable and potentially dangerous content. Not to mention that in the long run the toolbar may start spamming you with commercial advertisements, trying to make you click them so that it would make money for its creators via the pay-per-click system.

The thing is that you can never be guaranteed that you will be redirected to a safe website. MyImageConverter Toolbar may inadvertently host ads that contain links to malware-related pages. If you happen to click them, you would be only one step away from a severe malware infection. Eventually, you could lose your money, and the threat could severely cripple your computer’s system. Keeping in mind such potential consequences, it would be for the good to remove MyImageConverter Toolbar right now.
