BetterCareerSearch Toolbar is very similar to ReferenceBoss Toolbar, EliteUnzip Toolbar, and other add-ons that we can help you remove as well. In fact, they all have been created by Mindspark Interactive Network. Besides sharing the same developer and similar interfaces, all of these applications are connected to the same search tools. Whether you install BetterCareerSearch Toolbar from its official website or you download it via software bundles, it is most likely that you will be offered to install Ask Search tools. If you do not reject this offer, home.tb.ask.com will become the home page of your Chrome, Firefox, or IE browsers. Do you need to remove this home page? Even though it is quite interactive and fun, the home page presents search.tb.ask.com search results, and these may promote sponsored links. Even though you are wrong if you think that you must delete BetterCareerSearch Toolbar because it is a browser hijacker, the search tool linked to the toolbar is quite suspicious.

Even though BetterCareerSearch Toolbar is not a malicious program, it is not that useful either. If you have downloaded the tool without realizing this, and you do not know how to delete it, the removal guides below will help you. Note that you need to remove Chrome and Firefox extensions separately. Should you remove BetterCareerSearch Toolbar-related search tools as well? We believe it is more important to remove these search tools than the toolbar itself. Keep in mind that the same search service is presented via the toolbar, and if you do not trust it, you should not use the search tool on the toolbar either.
