I have those and freerice to donate rice to the hungry. But I know by heart how to type freerice so perhaps I can uninstall it. A year ago that site also had a searchengine but now it is not working so I won´t lose anything.

It is true that they make the screen smaller. I had to uninstall a couple for that reason. Now I think I will uninstall the toolbar of my favorite site because I can open it from other places.

I´m thinking on uninstalling some of them as the screen is now too little and I don´t use all of them. But it is easier to install them than to uninstall them

I don´t care much about these toolbars, I never use them and as you say, they took space from the monitor for things you are really interested for. For me, the worst is when they install by themselves, when you make another download, this really annoys me, and, they are so hard to uninstall sometimes. I have notice, but I am not sure if they are related, but, when I have one of this things in my computer, it becomes slower, maybe I am wrong, and this has nothing to do with it, but, I uninstall them, or, when possible, reject them when another program offers me one.

I recently had problems with the ASK browser, it installed by itself, when I installed a new program, and it cost me a lot of time to get rid of it. I don´t remember having any problem uninstalling cashgopher, until now, I don´t know why this this is for anyway :). I hate when this things, self install in our computers, without our consent.

THe only site that gave me real trouble was cashgopher. After I uninstalled it I had to take the computer to a technician. The computer had become very slow with it. That´s why I´m afraid of getting my browser´s cash.

I didn´t know it made the browser slower. Thanks for telling me. I was consideringg uninstalling some of them but you have added yet another reason to do it.
