- Addition of alternative error page functionality, such as “Page Not Found”

It adds a Browser Helper Object (BHO) to Internet Explorer. The primary executable is named TbHelper2.exe. Many users end up uninstalling this after less than a month of it being installed. The setup package generally installs about 7 files and is usually about 2.7 MB (2,834,733 bytes). The installed file update.exe is the auto-update component of the program which is designed to check for software updates and notify and apply them when new versions are discovered.
