Emsisoft Malware-Info

Name: Adware.Win32.Deskbar

Risklevel: Moderate Risk

Company: Deskbar - http://deskbar.worldtostart.com/

Description:

Deskbar is a tiny textbox that is designed for search hounds with weary mouse-fingers. Unlike the Google Toolbar, this little deskbar lets us launch searches without starting a web browser first, directly from our Windows Explorer Taskbar. The deskbar remembers our last 50 searches (by default). We can use the up and down arrows or ctrl-P (Previous) and ctrl-N (Next) to browse through our history of searches. If our deskbar is not docked in the taskbar, we can use the up and down arrow keys for the same thing.
