What is Search.ueep.com?
Search.ueep.com is a search engine that is set as your home page address when you install a number of freeware applications. It is not clear which application is responsible for delivering this search engine onto your computer. At first glance Search.ueep.com looks like your average search engine that simplifies your web search. However, due to its suspicious nature, users are highly recommended to remove Search.ueep.com from their browsers, because this search engine could be classified as potentially unwanted application, and in the long run it could become responsible for malware infection.
Where does Search.ueep.com come from?
Although there is no exact infection source, it is very likely that Search.ueep.com comes bundled with freeware applications. Whenever you download free software programs from random websites, you need to make sure that their installers are not bundled with some other application. That is why you are encouraged to download software ONLY from legitimate websites. Even if you do pay attention during freeware installation process, you may overlook the option that asks you whether you want Search.ueep.com installed or not - the Decline button is generally very small and placed in the corner of the installation wizard.
Why do I have to remove Search.ueep.com?
Even though this website is not dangerous on its own, the search results displayed by Search.ueep.com are highly suspicious, because commercial websites are mixed together with the websites that offer information on the topic. It could be that Search.ueep.com is used by a third party to promote certain service, but we cannot rule out the possibility that this search engine could be exploited by a malicious third party to distribute malware as well. That is why you should use a reliable search engine for your home page (if you use any), and remove Search.ueep.com from your browser.
