Ads by Obrona BlockAds

Ads by Obrona BlockAds

App Bud

App Bud

App Bud is one of the newest products of Super Web LLC; thus, if your system has ever been infected by Adanak, Gooternet, Webporpoise or other similar application, you will definitely know that it is not worth expecting anything beneficial from App Bud either.

As you can see, App Bud is not going to act in a useful way even though it claims to be able to enhance your browsing experience by providing tools for searching the web, finding the best prices, and the like.
