NetZany Powered IE tries to disguise itself as a helpful BHO (browser helper object), often by inserting itself into a toolbar on Microsoft Windows Internet Explorer.

NetZany Powered IE transmits information about you to its home servers.  It also receives updates and commercial information from the same places.  It starts itself each time your computer starts up—without permission.  Like most adware, it will consume your system resources and bandwidth, slowing down your computer and your Internet connection.

As an added bonus, the pop-ups and pop-unders it displays are often related to gambling or the adult industry.  If you use a work or family computer, it is in your best interest of you and your family to get rid of NetZany Powered IE as quickly as possible!  We highly recommend SpyZooka to end this threat, and prevent it from coming back.
