Note that many websites have their own advertising, unrelated to adware.
Adware is any software application in which advertising is displayed while the program is running. The authors of these applications include additional code that delivers the ads, which can be viewed through pop-up windows or through a bar that appears on a computer screen and sometimes through text links or in integrated search results. Adware may or may not track personal information. It may also gather information anonymously or in aggregate only. Users should check the EULA and Privacy policy to ensure if the adware on their machines conforms to their standards.

Description:
An IE toolbar. Its contents are loaded from a page at ezcybersearch.com each time a new Internet Explorer window is opened, and may include link buttons and a search field.
Comment:
Linked to EZCyberSearch.com, 50cents.com, 50centlyrics.com. And probably to CoolWebSearch because it has turned lilac in colour. It was always related to AllCyberSearch, GoCyberSearch and TinyBar, which now all have gone over to CoolWebSearch.
