About IETray Adware

IETray is a search sidebar hijacker pointed at search-aide.com, implemented as an Internet Explorer Browser Helper object. When other search engines are used, it occasionally opens a pop-up alert window encouraging one to use the (now hijacked) search sidebar instead. (“For faster web searches press F9”)
