Deal Maveric
Deal Maveric is an annoying adware program that slithers onto users’ computers for one main reason – to show commercial advertisements. Even though this program has an official website (dealmaverick.net), it is impossible to download it from there, which suggests that this adware enters systems imperceptibly. The quickest way to find out whether Deal Maveric is responsible for the ads you see on your screen is to check the Control Panel. If you have found its entry there, there is no doubt that this advertising-supported application is installed on your computer. Specialists at anti-spyware-101.com suggest that you get rid of Deal Maveric as soon as you can because this program generates irritating advertisements that can take you to corrupted websites.

Esurf.biz
A reliable search tool would never invade your operating system uninvited, and Esurf.biz is one of those tools that can slither in without your permission and circumvent your attempts to get rid of it. If you have installed this search tool yourself, you can call it an unreliable piece of software, but if it was installed without your permission, you need to treat it as a malicious browser hijacker.

KeyStream
As you know, there are many unreliable programs that pretend to be extremely helpful and trustworthy. KeyStream is not the most dangerous threat that could take over, but it is a threat nonetheless.

Needless to say, trusting this ad-supported program might be quite risky, which is why most users remove KeyStream. Those who keep this program on their operating systems usually do not understand the risks that are involved. If you want to learn more about this, please read this report. Read more »
ConverterPro
ConverterPro advertises itself as a free file converter. The program says on its official website that it can not only convert various media files, but also YouTube videos. Therefore, it is not surprising at all why so many users download and install this software on their systems.

We will explain you why it is not worth trusting this converter further in this article, so make sure that you read it from beginning to end.

Coupon Samurai
What do you expect from Coupon Samurai? Do you expect that this program will scan the World Wide Web and introduce you to the best deals based on what you are looking at? Well, sorry to disappoint you, but this program is unlikely to serve you in a beneficial manner. After all, it is just an advertisement-supported program that is used as a tool to deliver advertisements. Even if you see discounts, they are representing web stores or third-party sites, which means that these discounts are an advertising tool. This kind of promotion is not necessarily malicious, but we advise deleting Coupon Samurai because this program could be exploited. In the worst case, it could be used to exploit you, which is something we want to protect you from. Continue reading to learn more about this. Read more »
Saleslider
Saleslider is similar to a number of recently launched adware applications. We can name Ninja Savings and Majestic Coupons as almost identical programs, and all of them are owned and licensed by Engaging Apps. Names of these applications suggest that they present themselves as tools that should help you find discounts while you shop online. You may encounter various coupons if you keep using Saleslider, but the program is also involved in some suspicious activity as it monitors your browsing activity and sends the gathered information to its business partners. We think that safety of your information is very important, so you should remove the adware program. Read more »
Websearch.searchouse.info
Websearch.searchouse.info might replace your homepage and search engine one day. Specialists working at anti-spyware-101.com have found that this is usually done without a user’s permission. Of course, if your system is protected, browser hijackers will not be able to slither onto your computer; however, if you have already noticed the presence of Websearch.searchouse.info, it means that your system is completely unprotected. Of course, there is a possibility that you have a security tool installed, but it is useless. Either way, we suggest that you get rid of Websearch.searchouse.info as soon as possible because this search engine cannot be called “trustworthy”. In addition, there is a risk that it will put your system in danger. Read more »
