IESearch
IESearch is a malware application that adds a search toolbar to Internet Explorer. However, it also monitors all network and Internet traffic to and from the compromised PC and hijacks the web browser by changing its default home, search and error pages and modifying some related settings. IESearch works as an Internet Explorer add-on and therefore runs every time the user launches the web browser. Some of its components run on every Windows startup.
