Where does WebDiscover Browser come from?

The reason we urge users to scan their systems for other potential threats is that WebDiscover Browser clearly does not get distributed individually. This program travels in software packages with a number of other suspicious applications that could prove to be detrimental to your system’s security.

What’s more, even though WebDiscover Browser has an official website, we were not able to download it from the page because the download link simply did not load. When we opened getdiscoverbrowser.com, we were greeted with a blank page that immediately opened a pop-up and a download dialog box. We were offered to download a file called Setup.exe from admin.remagno.com. It is obviously not clear what kind of program this pop-up offers to install, so we clicked Cancel at once. However, instead of loading the WebDiscover Browser homepage, we encountered yet another pop-up that redirected us to bestofreeapps3.com. This website tried to convince us that we have to install a media player update to continue.

This kind of constant interruption most definitely deters users from trying to access the official website. And this is the reason we are sure that most of the time WebDiscover Browser comes uninvited. Consequently, any uninvited guests should not be tolerated.

What does WebDiscover Browser do?

This program is not much different from Screenery, Discover Browser, and WebBar potentially unwanted applications. It enters your system under the pretense that it can provide you with some particular function. In the case of WebDiscover Browser, the application installs a search bar that is displayed at the top of your screen. What’s more, the program also has its own browser that is based on the Chromium engine, and it tries to convince you that it can provide you with the most relevant search results.

Unfortunately, WebDiscover Browser could be easily exploited by unreliable third parties, especially as it relies on third-party content to carry out its functions. You should never risk your computer’s security, and so the best option in this situation is to remove WebDiscover Browser right now.

How do I remove WebDiscover Browser?
