BrowserShield Removal Guide

If you believe that BrowserShield will help you evade virtual security threats, you are wrong. This is not a trustworthy security tool that can guard you from the attacks of schemers. At best, it is just a monitoring tool that can block access to certain websites. In reality, it is not surprising that this program does not provide reliable security services. Our researchers have found that it can inject ads into any website, which means that it was designed as an advertisement-supported program. If you follow the news on our site, you know that there are plenty of unreliable ad-supported programs that require removal because they can work in a malicious manner. Should you delete BrowserShield as a malicious program as well? This is something you have to decide for yourself after reading our report.

Browser-shield.com was created to represent BrowserShield. Surprisingly, the installer on this site does not work, and, if you click the Download button, you are informed that the extension is “down for maintenance.” We know for a fact that this program is not down for maintenance because many computer users are trying to delete it after finding it packaged with third-party software. Although you need to take this ad-supported program seriously, you cannot put all of your attention on it if other potentially dangerous threats are active as well. Hopefully, BrowserShield will come packaged with harmless software, but we suggest employing a malware scanner to inspect them for you. If you find that dangerous infections were installed onto your operating system, you must plan their removal as well.

Find-Me-Savings and Majestic Coupons are programs that offer completely different services, but they are identical to BrowserShield, and they deserve removal as well. It is possible that they were created using the same framework, but it is also possible that they were created by the same company. If that were the case, it would be obvious that this company is unreliable because legitimate security tools do not have copies of themselves with different names as this is considered deceptive. All in all, it is not a secret that BrowserShield is an ad-supported program. According to the information at browser-shield.com/privacy.php, this program injects advertisements and uses data tracking technologies to record your virtual activity to select the ads that you are more likely to interact with. This can be dangerous if your browsing history was used to trick you into clicking on ads that might expose you to more threats that will also require removal.

Your operating system will remain vulnerable for as long as at least one unreliable program or file is active. Needless to say, it might be difficult to identify all programs and files that require removal yourself. SpyHunter’s malware scanner can help you figure out which programs must be deleted from your operating system, and, since this scanner is free, there is no reason why you should postpone installing it. If you find that you need to remove BrowserShield and other simple threats, you might be able to get rid of them manually. Of course, we do not recommend wasting your time with manual removal if you find that you need to delete BrowserShield along with serious computer infections. In this case, you need to install a security tool that will eliminate all malicious programs automatically.
