Cool Lyrics is a program developed by CoolZone. During setup, the program registers itself to launch on boot through a Windows Schedule Task in order to automatically start-up (this is typically done to avoid any UAC prompts). It adds a Browser Helper Object (BHO) to Internet Explorer. A scheduled task is added to Windows Task Scheduler in order to launch the program at various scheduled times (the schedule varies depending on the version). The main program executable is coolrcs.dll. Typically most users end up uninstalling this just after a few days. The software installer includes 3 files. CoolLyricsUpdater.exe is the automatic update component of the software designed to download and apply new updates should new versions be released. In comparison to the total number of users, most PCs are running the OS Windows 7 (SP1) as well as Windows 7. While about 36% of users of Cool Lyrics come from Brazil, it is also popular in the United States and Germany.
