March 1, 2013

Remember Avast, the most popular antivirus program that keeps your PC protected everyday? In their latest Avast 8 edition, the company is offering a standalone tool called Avast Browser Cleanup, which attempts to clean up unwanted toolbars and add ons that get installed on your browser. If you have installed bad programs or add-ons from the Internet, you may have certainly ended up  installing a bunch of junk unknown to you, such as the dreadful Babylon toolbar.

These add-ons run in the background even when you’re not browsing the Web, slows down your computer and is quite difficult to remove.

The Avast Browser Cleanup Tool easily removes the add-ons with bad reputations and can work even if you have another antivirus program installed on your PC because it is also available as a standalone product. Avast has cleaned up and restored over 200 million browsers to its initial, clean state. So the next time you’ are stuck with a bunch of crappy add ons and toolbars on your browser, be in Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, or Mozilla Firefox, you know you’ve got a handy tool you can rely on.
