Autosearch falls within the class of spyware known as homepage and browser hijackers. It installs an unwanted toolbar within Internet Explorer and can dramatically slow down your browser. Should you type in a web address incorrectly, Autosearch will redirect you to www.tunders.com. This site displays ads and is not a search engine.

Autosearch first appeared in January of 2004 and recognizes a number of other common browser hijackers, such as IGetNet, CommonName, and NewDotNet.

It consumes approximately 57k of storage space on your hard drive.
