The AADL.dll application changes settings of the Web browser without user's consent.
The AADL.dll program is approximately 161 kb in size. The spyware program embeds itself to the system as a Browser Helper Object (BHO). Developers use it to modify the Internet Explorer Web browser. BHO programs are DLL (Dynamic Link Library) modules. This allows it to access all the events, processes and information regarding Web browsing sessions. This is often done by injecting the module file to the browser program's main executable file.
The BHO program runs automatically every time the Web browser starts. They were originally designed for the Internet Explorer Web browser. The most common ones add toolbars to the browser's interface. Personal firewalls do not stop BHO programs from loading, as the firewall applications see BHO programs as part of the browser.
The AADL.dll program may be installed without the user's consent. The malware program can come bundled with freeware and shareware applications like toolbar accessories.
