Starware is a Browser Helper Object that may add a search bar in your Internet Explorer without your consent. Starware also displays advertisements. Starware may be difficult to uninstall because it runs automatically every time you start your Internet browser and cannot be stopped by personal firewalls because they tend to identify it as your browser itself. Starware can rebuild itself and if not removed can continue to spread throughout your system.

What is a Browser Helper Object?

Starware is a Browser Helper Object.

A Browser Helper Object, also known as BHO, is a DLL module designed as a plugin for your browser to provide added functionality. BHOs allows program developers to monitor and control IE browser. When you open your browser, it reads the registry to locate installed BHO’s and then creates them. BHO’s then have access to all the events and properties of that browsing session. Some BHOs come from legitimate programs but others are developed by spyware developers. Spyware BHOs may be installed on your computer without your knowledge and they can be used for malicious purposes like gathering info on your Internet surfing habits. You must investigate and decide whether you want to disable or re-enable BHOs.
