Remove HDview by Crossrider Platform

HDview will modify the browser settings which could include lowering the normal security settings of the browser as well as changing the home page and search provider (known as hijacking).

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. The main program executable is HDview-bg.exe. The software installer includes 10 files and is usually about 5.21 MB (5,457,944 bytes).

The program is built using the Crossrider framework, a cross browser monetization platform used to deploy a toolbar and extension for modern web browsers with monetization features including browser search and homepage redirection, contextual coupons and in-line text advertising. Crossrider extensions include background processes to monitor, update and automatically download new features/code without direct user interaction.
