      Superfluous Software

      ZooToolbar, Potentially Superfluous Software (LPS).

      Some programs or applications like ZooToolbar can be described as superfluous. These are mostly legitimate programs that may not be necessary for your system to function properly.

      They install as a program and/or as a browser extension. They can start automatically from the Registry via a "Run" key, a service or a scheduled task. It may launch when you start your browser after changing its settings. Sometimes the launch is done silently, that is to say it works in the background. Virus analysis of this software does not show any malicious detection. Read more
