How do you expect DNS Keeper to work? Are you hoping that this program will unblock the sites that you have no access to because of where you live? Even though this is exactly what this program promises, our researchers have found that it works in a completely different manner. In fact, what should be a beneficial tool is just an advertisement-supported program that deserves removal. This suspicious program was created by GreenTeam Internet Ltd., and it is presented at vidpot.tv. Of course, it is highly unlikely that anyone will download this program directly from this site. According to the information we have gathered, it is most likely that you will have to delete DNS Keeper after executing software packages.

Before we start discussing DNS Keeper and its removal, we want to mention something about software packages. You probably know this already, but software packages (or bundles) can be used to distribute very malicious programs. So, if you have executed a software package, inspect your operating system and figure out if you need to remove DNS Keeper-related infections. When it comes to this ad-supported program, an important reason to delete this infection is its bogus promises. Even if this program turned out to be completely harmless – which it is not – you should remove it just because it has has used false information to trick you into installing it.

Having said that, there is one much more important reason to get rid of this program. Just like its clone, DNS Unlocker, the devious DNS Keeper displays advertisements. These ads might be served via unreliable adware servers, which means that they might represent scams, bogus shopping deals, and even malware installers. Fortunately, the ads that this adware injects usually show up with the tag "Ads by DNS-Keeper," which makes it very easy to identify them. Needless to say, we also do not recommend interacting with unidentified ads because they could be just as unreliable. Have you noticed that DNS Keeper ads coincide with the information you look for online? This might happen if this adware installs tracking cookies that we recommend removing from your browsers as well. Unfortunately, the ads will not disappear even if you delete tracking cookies.

The removal of DNS Keeper pushes many users over the edge. Even though it is very easy to uninstall this program via Control Panel (shown below), this is not enough to get rid of the irritating ads. Additionally, if you want to be successful, you will need to change DNS settings as well, and we have got you covered with this as well. Now that the removal of DNS Keeper is clear – you can post a comment if it is not – you need to think about the remaining programs that might be just as unreliable as this ad-supported program. If you have downloaded it along with adware, PUPs, or other kinds of threats, you should not postpone their removal any longer. Have you considered installing an automated malware remover to find and delete these programs? Undoubtedly, this tool can get rid of malware in the most efficient manner.
