Remove EazelBar by Vittalia Internet, SLU

EazelBar is a web browser plugin for Intenet Explorer and Firefox. The toolbar collects and stores information about your web browsing habits and sends this information to Conduit so they can suggest services or provide advertising via the toolbar. It will attempt to change your home page and search provider to search.eazel.com if you are not careful during installation and provides a search box and various other generic features. If the home page and search settings were modified by EazelBar, they need to be manually reverted back by the user if the user decides to uninstall the toolbar.

The most used version is eazelbar 1.7, with over 98% of all installations currently using this version. It adds a background controller service that is set to automatically run. Delaying the start of this service is possible through the service manager. The program adds a toolbar to Microsoft Internet Explorer. The main program executable is Toolbar64.dll. A vast majority of those who have this installed end up removing it just after a couple weeks. The software installer includes 5 files and is usually about 2.03 MB (2,125,290 bytes). ToolbarUpdaterService.exe is the automatic update component of the software designed to download and apply new updates should new versions be released.
