What is  search.dll

Search.dll is the dynamic link library file used by the software Daemon Tools WhenU Search Bar. The search.dll file is responsible in uploading a set of information to the desktop one at a time. It will enable the user to determine whether he or she will retrieve information from WhenU or from other servers. The DLL file also provides the user a toolbar, where he or she manages his or her decision on what ads he or she will download from WhenU. From here, WhenU delivers coupons, information and advertisement significant only to the user without transmitting his browsing activity and personal data to WhenU. So upon installing the Daemon Tools, the user has the option to also install WhenU SearchBar. Activating the SearchBar will also activate the search.dll. The SearchBar displays ads based on the activities of the user such as the Web pages he or she visits, search terms used while browsing online, local zip or country code and the content viewed from the Web pages.
