Multifunctional Ask.com searches integrated into your browser
When toolbars are done badly, they can be very annoying. When they're done right, however, they can bring easily-accessed extra functionality to your browsing experience.Luckily for us, the Ask. com Toolbar is a good example of the latter. The Ask. com Toolbar can be used with Firefox or Internet Explorer and on both is a slim, well-designed tool that fits in perfectly.The Ask icon on the far left is a direct link to the search website, or you can use the built-in search bar to locate information directly from within the toolbar.The small Ask. com Toolbar icons that takes up the rest of the bar allow you to customize your search immediately, limiting the results to Images, Weather, Dictionary, Thesaurus, Stocks or Blogs.
The Ask. com Toolbar also gives you handy access to page resizing and a Highlight function, but I have to admit that I couldn't make this work during my tests.On the far right there are a limited number of configuration options, among them options to display recent searches or clear them when you exit the browser.Ask. com Toolbar isn't revolutionary, but if you like the Ask search engine, it is a nice way of adding some subtle search power to your browsing experience.

Awesome!.
Ask toolbar is the answer to... well, everything! If you don't have it yet you don't even need to go find it, it finds its way to you AUTOMATICALLY.
Pros:
Pop ups
It changes my web pages
Brings my computer down to manageable speed
Reinstalls itself when you accidentally remove it
Cons:
Comes bundled with old bloatware called Java
Needs more flashing, notifications and popups
It's too small and sometimes hard to see
Need more options to share with friends More

Of all my toolbars, I like this one the best.
I love the Ask toolbar. It fits nicely below the Yahoo toolbar and above the toolbars from AOL, Google, and eBay and many others. In fact, it brings my number of toolbars from (unlucky!) 13 to 14 which is reason enough to download it.For some time it had bothered me that the Ask toolbar was bundled with a crapware addon named Java so imagine my delight when I found it available for download here.
Pros:
It heals my life
Cons:
Should be bigger
Should be bundled with everything More
