Re: Drum roll to stupidity

since i've had no problems using the internet without tool bars for ~10 years, i don't see why i should ever install one. if people are getting annoyed from what google tool bar is doing, then UNINSTALL it. you may not have control on what your ISP is doing, but you have the control uninstall software that is on your own computer that is altering whatever.

I agree... I get almost every app attempting to 'add' a toolbar on my browser. Why ? Well obviously they make money somehow. If its not from reselling the info collected by your surfing habits, its through ads or selling the info collected by you using their toolbar's associated search engine. Nobody does this just as a basic enhancement... its all about money.
