This adware usually arrives on a system downloaded from the Internet. This is a self extracting CAB file and an installer for the application Daemon Tools. Upon execution, it adds a folder and a file as DaemonTools_WhenUSave_Installer\\DaemonTools_WhenUSave_Installer.exe in the Program Files folder. Trend Micro also detects the said file as ADW_SAVENOW.BD. It adds the following registry key to enable its automatic execution on every start up: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\ Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Run DaemonTools_WhenUSave_Installer = "%ProgramFiles%\\DaemonTools_WhenUSave_Installer\\ DaemonTools_WhenUSave_Installer.exe" (Note: %Program Files% is the default Program Files folder, usually C:\\Program Files.)
