Summary
Briss is an spyware (intrusive advertising software) made by BlazeFind. It is usually installed to computers without any warning or notification to users. The main component is a BHO (Browser Helper Object) that creates a search toolbar in Internet Explorer's interface. The spyware is capable or auto-updating itself. It reports information about users' hard drives and operating system version to its maker, that is why we consider it a spying trojan.
