AnimeUnzipped by Mindspark is a web toolbar directed towards the fans of anime and cosplay. It claims that it can be your inspiration when you need ideas for your costume. Although this description may seem appealing to the right audience, they should proceed with caution because AnimeUnzipped is adware. Its developers may use it to increase the popularity of partner pages that pays off to them in the form of referral commissions. The reputation of Mindspark is pretty negative because the company has created more than a few toolbars with questionable quality and often missing benefits. A few examples of their products are FileSendSuite Toolbar, DownSpeedTest Toolbar and BigGameCountdown Toolbar. The common features of the applications by Mindspark are many, and one of them is the distribution method. It is true that you can download AnimeUnzipped Toolbar from animeunzipped.com and the Chrome Web Store, but it also may come bundled with another cost-free application. This tactic may leave some inattentive PC users unaware of the presence of this adware in their executable files. When the installation process is over, you may find AnimeUnzipped Toolbar in all present browsers, including the most popular such as Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox and Internet Explorer. The toolbar indeed contains some buttons that lead to cosplay-oriented platforms, but the problem is that the adware also may insert a considerable amount of banners, pop-ups, interstitial ads and videos. They may sometimes affect the performance of your browsers in a negative manner, leading to occasional freezes or slower operating speed. The mere presence of ads on almost all pages may be enough to annoy the users. If you wish to remove this adware from your system, all you need to do is a system scan with an appropriate security program.
