What is IE Spyad? It is a free list of bad sites that are added to Internet Explorer's restricted zone. By putting those sites in the restricted zone, it limits the harm they can do your computer. Here is an excerpt from the author describing it:

IE-SPYAD adds a long list of sites and domains associated with known advertisers, marketers, and crapware pushers to the Restricted sites zone of Internet Explorer. Once you merge this list of sites and domains into the Registry, the web sites for these companies will not be able to use cookies, ActiveX controls, Java applets, or scripting to compromise your privacy or your PC while you surf the Net. Nor will they be able to use your browser to push unwanted pop-ups, cookies, or auto-installing programs on your PC.IE-SPYAD adds a long list of sites and domains associated with known advertisers, marketers, and crapware pushers to the Restricted sites zone of Internet Explorer.

Many rogue Internet sites have been added to IE Spyad's protection list. A few that are of note include some of the fake Windows security sites that are from SmitFraud, better known as SpyAxe, SpyFalcon, and SpywareQuake.
