It uses the Ask.com searchengine now.

The "optional" toolbar was prechecked and there was no extra info it uses the Ask.com searchengine. Only the fact that it says that this Toolbar provides extra Security. Yeah sure...

ZA's FAQ says:

"Does the ZoneAlarm Spy Blocker toolbar track where I go on the Internet?

The ZoneAlarm Spy Blocker toolbar does not monitor or report back to ZoneAlarm information about where you are traveling when you leave the ZoneAlarm Spy Blocker toolbar service, or what you do on other Web sites." From this, I take it that it tracks your surfing.
