The MyEasyLotto Toolbar is a product of Mindspark Interactive Network, which promises to provide users with the latest news regarding the winning lotto numbers. While this feature might seem useful if you are an avid lotto player and want to find out whether you've won or not immediately, you should be aware that this information is not private, and you do not need to use a 3rd-party browser extension to get access to it. Unfortunately, installing the MyEasyLotto Toolbar will not only give you updates regarding the winning lottery numbers, but it also might modify your Web browser's settings to introduce you to an alternative new tab page.
The MyEasyLotto Toolbar add-on is classified as a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP), and it is compatible with all popular browsers – Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox and Microsoft Edge. The add-on is only able to modify the Chrome's new tab, but users of Edge or Firefox may end up having their default homepages replaced as well. The website that the MyEasyLotto Toolbar attempts to popularize can be found at free.myeasylotto.com/index.jhtml. The page hosts a simple search engine, as well as quick links to popular Web destinations and pages that can display the current winning lottery numbers. The free.myeasylotto.com/index.jhtml is maintained by MyWay.com, a popular search engine, which appears to be used by the majority of Mindspark's products.
If you find the MyEasyLotto Toolbar to be unnecessary, then you should take the required steps to take care of its removal. Since this is not a harmful application, it can be removed via your browser's settings menu manually. You also can take care of the task with the help of a credible security tool.
