The Mindspark FreeRadioCast toolbar for IE will add unwanted search, newtab and search assets in Internet Explorer.
Overview
FreeRadioCast Internet Explorer Toolbar is a software program developed by Mindspark Interactive Network. During setup, the program creates a startup registration point in Windows in order to automatically start when any user boots the PC. Upon being installed, the software adds a Windows Service which is designed to run continuously in the background. Manually stopping the service has been seen to cause the program to stop functing properly. 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 primary executable is named eeBar.dll. Many users end up uninstalling this after less than a month of it being installed. The setup package generally installs about 40 files and is usually about 11.21 MB (11,755,392 bytes). Relative to the overall usage of those who have this installed, most are running it on Windows 10. Most users that have installed this software come from the United States.
