Usually users are forced to install Web Bar, as it is, as a rule, bundled with freeware and shareware that is widely spread on the web. In this case the developers use the trick based on people’s ignorance and hastiness. The threat can be avoided by simple change to Advanced or Custom mode and unticking the complementary components, however, very few users do so.
