Work-Bar.biz is a search tool which will affect your Google Chrome browser when you install the extension called Work-Bar. This extension should allow users to personalize their Google Chrome pages and make them more attractive. Also, Work-Bar.biz should enable users to check the weather forecast and keep them informed about the time. Evidently, a number of users believe these promises and go to install the Work-Bar extension on their computers. Unfortunately, many of them get disappointed when they find out that they cannot do much to customize the page they see. To be frank, this search tool has more disadvantages than advantages, so users should carefully consider whether it is worth keeping it set on the browser after finding more about it in this report. The last paragraph of this article focuses on the deletion of this undesirable application, so read it carefully if you make a decision to get rid of this untrustworthy search tool.

Work-Bar.biz does not look like a bad search tool at first glance; however, according to researchers, it seems that this search tool cannot be fully trusted despite its interface which does not differ much from interfaces of trustworthy search tools. Specialists have a negative opinion about it not without reason. They have carried out research and found that Work-Bar.biz might display advertisements (“The Via Advertising Sites include content and ads from third parties”) to users and provide them with the modified search results. Since these ads are usually placed on the search results page, users click on them fearlessly because they think that these are search results shown by Work-Bar.biz after entering a search query. In most cases, they are placed at the top of all the search results to make sure that users see them and thus click on them. The commercial content provided by untrustworthy search engines might be quite dangerous. These links and ads they display load third-party websites if a user clicks on any of them. Unfortunately, not all the opened websites can be trusted. Some of these websites promoted might even contain malware. You should not even try to ignore these third-party links because you could still not recognize all of them. Instead, go to eliminate Work-Bar.biz from your browser, if you see it set.

Specialists at 411-spyware.com say that Work-Bar.biz might also record all kinds of details about users, their computers, and their activities on the web. It acts exactly like other products of the Via Advertising Group Limited, which has developed it. As users are informed in the Privacy Policy document, this search tool is going to record anonymous user information. It includes IP address, referral data, browser platform and type. On top of that, it is said there that the so-called individual user information is going to be recorded as well. This information can identify users personally, for example, name, email address, shipping address, and demographic information (e.g. gender, age, and occupation). This search tool will not stop acting this way if you do not do anything and let it stay. Yes, you have understood correctly, the only way to put an end to all those activities it performs is to delete Work-Bar.biz fully.

As has already been explained, there is a search tool Work-Bar.biz set on your Google Chrome browser because the Work-Bar extension has been installed on the system. Users get it from the Chrome Web Store (chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/work-bar/hofngijjpilmembpgefopjcfiimkdkhi) or its official website primarily, but it might be distributed in a different way as well, e.g. it might come bundled with freeware. Of course, it does not matter now where it has come from because it needs to be deleted either way to undo the changes applied to your browser. To protect the system from unwanted changes in the future, you need to go to install a search tool right now.

Getting rid of the Work-Bar.biz extension is the only way to eliminate an untrustworthy search tool from the browser, so go to get rid of it as soon as possible. It is not very hard to do that, but users usually do not know how to access the Add-ons Manager. Find instructions below this article – they will help you to open the manager and eliminate the extension. The quicker and easier removal method is, of course, the automatic one. If you decide to employ it, use a reputable scanner, e.g. SpyHunter.
