I had to uninstall the Deskbar because it was causing my browser to lock up.

Has this happened to anyone else?

As soon as I uninstalled it, everything was fine.

I think it messed up my wireless networking and my IE. It seemed on IE that it changed the setting about accessing the Internet from "Never Dial a Connection" to "Dial a Connection when Needed"

This sounds like a big deal, but everyone is being vague. Can one of you post details for GG?

I think the Deskbar corrupted my Toolbar too. I had to unisnstall the toolbar because it was causing IE to freeze.

This stinks because I had over 650 popups blocked. Guess I'll have to start all over.

No trouble here with either the toolbar or the deskbar. Just lacking PR like everyone else. 804 blocked popups! Although the one problem I had was that the deskbar options window causes the taskbar to freeze until you're done changing options.

My toolbar is fine working well at 941 pop up blocks however my Deskbar has stopped working correctly I get a blank screen when I search for something, I have updated it, and checked the firewall.

Looks like I will re-install, however I used it a lot on the first day since then I hardly use it. mainly because I have a browser open 24/7 :)

My deskbar slowed down my PC soooo much I had to get rid of it - mind you, the earlier version of the toolbar would crash my IE!
