Earlier versions of the program were considered adware by some websites and anti-malware applications,^[1][2][3] however analysis of later versions of the MyWay Searchbar showed that the program is no longer adware.^[4] Dell used to pre-install this software on some of their commercially sold PCs.^[5]
