Revision 4

What's new in revision 4?

I removed the cleaning of the temp folder option in Settings. Later, I will have the folder cleaned after every detection is done.

Usage Data

One way to help make this program better for everyone is logging usage data. I understand today many software companies are shifty about what data they collect. The data I collect will be uploaded to my server, so I can incorporate it into future releases. If a toolbar is detected trying to install, that data will be logged. I can use that data to better detect toolbars in the future. Since my program is open source, I have nothing to hide. You can also check the log file that will be sent in ...\AppData\Roaming\Toolbar Blocker\log.txt. The data automatically sends once a Sunday at 3:30 PM. If your computer is offline/powered off at the time, you can send it manually. Otherwise, it tries again next week same time. I hope to have a solution for this, so that it tries again at next chance (then doesn't send again until the next Sunday at 3:30 PM).
