Adware.FavoriteMan may download the following risks:

When Adware.FavoriteMan is installed it performs the following actions:
  1. Creates some of the following files:

    • %System%\casldr.dll
    • %System%\ATPartners.dll
    • %System%\im64.dll
    • %System%\lstb4drc.dll
    • %System%\lstb4drc.exe

    • %UserProfile%\Favorites\AT-Games\Big Fish Games.url
    • %UserProfile%\Favorites\AT-Games\FlyorDieGames.url
    • %UserProfile%\Favorites\AT-Games\GameHouse Games.url

      Note:
    • %System% is a variable. The program locates the System folder and copies itself to that location. By default, this is C:\Windows\System (Windows 95/98/Me), C:\Winnt\System32 (Windows NT/2000), or C:\Windows\System32 (Windows XP).
    • %UserProfile% is a variable that refers to the current user's profile folder. By default, this is C:\Documents and Settings\[CURRENT USER] (Windows NT/2000/XP).

  2. Installs itself as a Browser Helper Object.
