IEMenuExt Description

IEMenuExt is an Internet Explorer browser plugin that adds a toolbar with malware and adware. Once installed IEMenuExt monitors and tracks the websites visited by the user. IEMenuExt then sends this information to remote servers where it is used to generate unwanted commercial pop-up ads targeting the user’s web browsing activities. IEMenuExt is manually installed and automatically runs on every Windows startup and reboot.
