It took me a lot of searching to find out about ActualNames, but I found the information for you. ActualNames is a web browser hijacker. The web browsers ActualNames affects are Internet Explorer, Netscape Navigator and AOL. ActualNames has also been found to interfere with sending email from various email applications and some email sites.
ActualNames is a danger to your computer, not just an annoyance. ActualNames has been found to download unsigned code from its controlling server and execute that code. So far the functions of this code have not yet been discovered.
It has been found that ActualNames comes bundled with KazaaMate, and it is also suspected of being installed by ActiveX, driven by pop-ups.
