It is high time we talk about a program that you should remove. It is called DesktopClock, and our researchers at Anti-spyware-101.com have classified this program as adware, because apart from showing you time it will show ads as well. Both of these functions go hand in hand in the free version of this program. We do not see the point in using this program, because all windows operating systems have a built-in clock. Read more »

Search.mysearchengine.info is a search engine that some users consider a browser hijacker. The domain might be set up as your default search engine when you install the VideoPlayerClassic application. The problem is that you probably did not know you were installing one because this potentially unwanted program comes in software packages. If we are talking about software packages here, it is important to mention that there might be several other unwanted applications running on your computer. Read more »

SmarterPassword Toolbar offers you access to password generator tools for free; however, our malware specialists have discovered that this browser extension is simply a newcomer from the Mindspark family of questionable toolbars. That is why we advise you to be careful with this toolbar, too. Like all the other members of this family, SmarterPassword Toolbar also looks all innocent and maybe even useful to some. But you need to know that this extension might hold some threats to your virtual security. Read more »

Palmodeal might seem to be a perfect program for those people who shop online. The program is compatible with Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome browsers at the moment, but it might be updated in the future. We do not blame those users who download and install Palmodeal on their systems because this program really makes many promises. First of all, it says that it will find and offer the lowest price for the items you like, search coupons, vouchers, and thus help you save money. The program claims that it works on hundreds of online stores, including eBay and Amazon. Read more »

Altonav Ads pop up on your screen when the Altonav adware program gets installed on your PC. It is obvious that these ads are extremely annoying, but you should also take into consideration the fact that they might be dangerous as well. Adware programs are created having money in mind, but they could be easily exploited by cyber criminals as vehicles for malware distribution. Read more »

Awesome-Promos is yet another “money-saver” from the notorious Multiplug family of useless adware applications, but the only ones making money out of it will be the creators. Of course, they could not make a cent if there were not unsuspecting users clicking on the advertisements, best offers, and deals they are presented with by this adware. Without the users’ “support” no criminals could make a nice living and make up newer useless applications while cruising with their private yachts on the sea. Read more »
