Starware Toolbar Uninstallation Instructions

What do I get with the Starware Toolbar?

What is the Starware Toolbar?

Starware is a handy shortcut to useful information and fun utilities. The FREE software features an easy to use toolbar for Windows that gives the user power to:

  • View current temperature in the toolbar
  • Search from any page on the web
  • Find dictionary terms from the toolbar
  • More features on the way!

Always free! NO spyware! NO adware!

Is the Starware Toolbar free? How does Starware pay their rent?

There's never any charge for our products: they're always free to download and use. We make money by providing you with the very best sponsored search and travel services. By partnering with paid search providers and delivering paid listings in addition to traditional results, we are able to earn advertising revenue that funds the development of more cool new products. We never collect personally identifiable information and never include "adware", or intrusive "spyware" that compromises your privacy in any way, shape or form. All of our revenue generating features offer easy opt out settings. If you don't like a new feature, simply turn it off and it will go away.

How does the Starware Toolbar interact with users?

Starware is committed to user privacy and ethical policies that respect users' rights to uninhibited internet use and access and, further, to fully satisfy their users by providing helpful client side utilities with minimally invasive functionality and clear notice of all material product characteristics.

Again, we never collect personally identifiable information and never include obnoxious "adware" that displays pop-up windows, or intrusive "spyware" software that compromises your privacy in any way, shape or form.

What are the system requirements for the Starware Toolbar?

  1. Operating System Requirements:
    Windows Versions (Windows 98, Windows ME, Windows NT, Windows 2000, and Windows XP)
  2. Browser Requirements:
    Minimum of Internet Explorer versions 5.5. We do not support the Netscape browser.
  3. Hardware requirements:
    Any Windows-compatible computer. We don't support Mac and Linux systems (sorry Mac and Linux friends!)

I use Norton Internet Security, Zone Alarm, or similar firewall/proxy software and am having trouble downloading the Starware Toolbar. What should I do?

Temporarily disable your firewall/proxy software and try the download again. You can reactivate your firewall/proxy software once you have downloaded the Starware Toolbar.

What is a DNS Error?

A DNS Error occurs when a web server could not be found at the URL you are seeking. When this happens, "Error Search" displays links for potentially correct pages.

What is Auto Search?

Auto Search generates search results when you type a search term directly into the browser address bar. More information related to Toolbar Search products can be found on the features page.

How do I uninstall the Starware Toolbar?

Uninstallation is very simple. It's done through Windows' Add/Remove Control Panel. For detailed uninstallation instructions, click here. If you still see the Starware Toolbar in your Internet Explorer, or any other Starware files remaining on your hard drive, please contact us.
