CursorMania Toolbar is not a malicious computer infection, but some computer users are surprised by how it works. If you think that this toolbar is part of a malicious browser hijacker, you probably have accidentally accepted home page and search provider modifications. CursorMania Toolbar comes bundled with the Ask Search tools, but they are completely optional, and you are given the opportunity to refuse them if you want to. If this weren't the case, you could delete the toolbar as a browser hijacker. Do you still want to remove CursorMania Toolbar? There are a few reasons why you should, and they are discussed in this report.

EasyPDFCombine Toolbar, RecipeHub Toolbar, and MarineAquarium Toolbar are clones of the suspicious CursorMania Toolbar. Even though these toolbars offer different services, they all have been created by Mindspark Interactive Network to present links to third-party sites, and this is the main reason why you should remove them. CursorMania Toolbar offers links that lead to sites associated with Cursors, Screensavers, and Wallpapers. Keep in mind that you have to be very careful about third-party links, because they could route you to unfamiliar, unpredictable websites. Besides these links, the toolbar also displays a search box that leads to search.tb.ask.com, and due to this search tool many users have chosen to delete CursorMania Toolbar. Do you need to remove the application or remove the search tools?

If you have not downloaded CursorMania Toolbar from the official website cursormania.com, you could have downloaded it from third-party distributors, in which case the toolbar is likely to be installed with other programs. You must analyze every single one of the apps installed with CursorMania Toolbar to make sure that you do not need to remove them. If you have used the official website, it is most likely that you only need to remove CursorMania Toolbar and the search tools installed with it. Even though we do not identify the toolbar or the search tools as malicious, you have the right to remove them.

When you uninstall CursorMania Toolbar from your operating system (see removal instructions below), you will not need to go back to your Internet Explorer browser to delete the toolbar, but Chrome and Firefox users will have to delete CursorMania Toolbar from these browsers separately. We have added a few steps in the removal guide to help you remove CursorMania Toolbar from these browsers. The guide also shows how to remove home.tb.ask.com home page and the undesirable search provider. Have we left some of your questions unanswered?
