Creators of adware applications try different ways to promote their products, and developers of Clean Browse plays the card of online safety. The program offers you protection against the latest threats, and this will cost you nothing as the application is free to use. But the Anti-spyware.101.com research team has decided to take a closer look at the program and found that it is a duplicate of Web Security App. The latter application was recently reviewed, and we came up with a conclusion that it should be removed. The same applies to Clean Browse as well. Read more »

Most computer users would not pass up an opportunity to save money, and Awesome Shoppers is one of the many programs that promise to help. This program was recently analyzed in our Anti-Spyware-101.com internal lab, and we have found that it is yet another advertisement-supported program that does not deserve your trust. Even if this program shows attractive coupons, deals, or discounts, it is possible that you would find better offers if you researched them yourself. After all, advertisement-supported programs are usually created to promote specific sites, services, and products, and you should not expect them to provide you with the best offers. We believe this is the first reason why you should remove Awesome Shoppers from your operating system. Read more »

SaleSale is a newly released program, and, judging by its name, you can probably guess that it is one of those annoying programs that do nothing. We recommend that you remove this program, because it has been set to show you potentially unreliable — and definitely irritating — advertisements. Apart from that, the application will use up your computer’s resources, which can obviously be put to better use. There is no reason why you should keep SaleSale, because it does not do anything that could benefit your browsing experience. Therefore, you should get rid of it in a timely manner. Read more »

Catered to You is an adware program that is based on the Injekt engine. Such applications as Magical Find, Gravity Space, and Sale Charger that are also based on the same engine were already examined by the research team of Anti-Spyware-101.com. All Injekt products are created solely for the purpose of meeting advertisement goals of the clients of that company. The same goes for Catered to You as the program will bring no benefits to you no matter how enticing its promises may look. The best you can do regarding this program is to remove it on the spot.

If Mozilla Firefox is your default browser, you might be affected by the Funfeedr adware extension sooner or later. This application is promoted as a useful Firefox that can improve your browser’s functionality and enhance your web browsing experience, but there is no proof that the application does that. In fact, this extension may expose you to unreliable third-party content, and that would eventually lead to various computer security problems. Thus, before any of that happens, you have to remove Funfeedr from your browser and then make sure you never install similar applications again. If you are not sure whether your computer is absolutely safe, get yourself a licensed antispyware tool and run a full system scan with it. Read more »

Search Armor is one of those programs which users install on their systems because they believe that it is very useful. Search Armor advertisers itself as a “browsing guardian”, so it is not surprising at all that many users download it and keep it on their systems. At first sight, this program really seems rather decent because it has a web page. Users can find some information about Search Armor on this website too. If we believe the information provided there, this application can protect Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, and Mozilla Firefox from unauthorized changes. In other words, it says that it will not allow unreliable software to change your homepage and search provider. In other words, it saves your preferred browser’s settings. It is unclear whether it really acts as it promises; however, there is no doubt that this program is going to show ads after you install it. As many users notice ads on their screens, Search Armor is classified as an advertising-supported application. Read more »

Web Security App is promoted as a program that will guarantee your safety when you surf the Web. Each time you open a suspicious website, the program should inform you about it. But in reality, the program attacks you with advertisements each time you browse the Internet and, therefore, is classified as an adware application. Those ads are eating your system resources, and some of them may redirect you to unreliable websites. Therefore, removal of the adware program is the most rational decision. Read more »
