Hi Friends<br />
<br />
I have found this R1 line on a HijackThis Log from a customer.<br />
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Wi<wbr />ndows\Curr<wbr />entVersion<wbr />\Internet Settings,ProxyOverride = <a href="http://localhost" rel="ugc">http://localhost</a>;<br />
<br />
I know this is for Internet Explorers Search functions and other characteristics. But what does this line mean? Where can I find more information’s about this line?<br />
<br />
Thank you very much

Anti-virus software was originally developed to detect and remove computer viruses. However, with the proliferation of other kinds of malware, antivirus software started to provide protection from other computer threats. In particular, modern antivirus software can protect from malicious browser helper objects (BHOs), browser hijackers, ransomware, keyloggers, backdoors, rootkits, trojan horses, worms, malicious layered service providers (LSPs), dialers, fraud tools, adware and spyware. Some products also include protection from other computer threats, such as infected and malicious URLs, spam, scam and phishing attacks, online identity theft (privacy), online banking attacks, social engineering techniques, Advanced Persistent Threat (APT), botnets and DDoS attacks.

Anti-Virus Apps

Spyware is software that aims to gather information about a person or organization without their knowledge and that may send such information to another entity without the consumer's consent, or that asserts control over a computer without the consumer's knowledge; it has also come to include programs that engage in various kinds of electronic fraud. Anti-spyware is software that removes or blocks that software; some common vendors include Malwarebytes, McAfee, Spybot-Search and Destroy, Ad-Aware and BitDefender.
