According to a recently released copy of the bitgifts toolbar source there is a keylogger embedded in the bitcoin earning toolbar. This came as a shock to many as the site also recently shuttered. What does this mean for users of bitgifts? We recommend uninstalling the toolbar immediately, then run a full suite anti-virus and malware detection program. I personally recommend malwarebytes.  Most importantly make sure you change the passwords for any site you logged into while using the extension!
