This signature detects the runtime behavior of the spyware Dreambar. Dreambar is a toolbar that adds itself to the browser above or below the address bar. It hijacks the address bar, search engine, and redirects queries to its own Dreambar search engine without user's consent. It can also track browser habits and queries to display relevant results and ads on the infected system.
