How to remove DLSecure Toolbar (Virus Removal Guide)

This DLSecure Toolbar removal guide will help you remove the DLSecure Toolbar virus and uninstall malware  to get rid of unwanted ads and browser redirects caused by DLSecure Toolbar on Chrome, Firefox, and Internet Explorer.

What is DLSecure Toolbar?

DLSecure Toolbar is an advertisement-supported and cross-browser potentially unwanted program (PUP) that can get onto a computer system and attach to Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, and Microsoft Internet Explorer as a browser add-on, extension, and helper object (BHO) without user consent and often undetected.

DLSecure Toolbar

DLSecure Toolbar is used to access and collect user browser information, such as browsing activity and history in order to display targeted advertisements. The program also changes existing internet browser settings such as the homepage, browser shortcut, and default, managed, and provided search engines. In turn, this causes unwanted browser redirects and start-ups to suspicious search engines.

The DLSecure Toolbar virus; though, not technically a computer virus, may also bundle with third-party unwanted programs, malware, and malicious traces such as non-beneficial optimization software similar to PC Speed Clean.

This means that if you have found DLSecure Toolbar installed onto your computer or attached to your internet browser, it is highly likely that additional items will also need to be removed to stop unwanted browser redirects and pop-up advertisements.
