About BHO files
BHO files, or Browser Helper Objects, are components typically used by Internet Explorer to enhance browser capabilities. However, these files can present certain challenges. They are often targeted by malware, leading to security concerns. Moreover, converting BHO files to other formats can be complex because they are not meant to be standalone files.
If you need to convert BHO files, it's essential to understand that these files are generally specific to the Windows operating environment. Converting them into more useful formats like .dll, .exe, or even readable text formats can be difficult. Software like IDA Pro and Ghidra can be used for reverse engineering to extract information, but these require technical expertise.

The BHO Converter Story
The history of Convert.Guru began more than 25 years ago in California, when Tom Simondi published the most comprehensive database of file formats on his website. Before that, Tom had worked on Space Shuttle development at the Air Force Systems Command’s Space Division in Los Angeles. He is known as one of the top programmers of the late 1980s.
When Microsoft integrated Tom’s Filext database into Windows XP, it became the leading platform for analyzing and processing file types and formats.
Today, we use the latest technologies to analyze, process, and convert one of the world's largest collections of file formats. We are committed to developing the best BHO converter by continuously improving quality, usability, and reliability.
