Technically speaking, they are not viruses but Adware. This VirusTotal scan of the ist_remove.exe file should give you an idea what most of these are: ***** You would think the ist_remove.exe file would remove the IST-Bar. It doesn't. The IST-Bar toolbar and all of the other software here is something that can download / install without you asking for it. Well it won't do that with a properly patched and updated Windows 7 OS. But just because it is AdWare, doesn't mean it is necessarily trivial to remove the first time around. Thereafter it gets easier. Maybe you want it - I don't. Here is SafeWeb's take on all of the stuff from them. http://safeweb.norton.com/report/show?url=ysbweb.com Oh yes, MalwareDomainList removed this domain from their hosts black list.
