Detailexplore.com might look like a harmless search tool, but its usage may come with some risks. As it appears that the search engine could display doubtful pop-ups, sponsored links, banners, and other advertisements belonging to various third parties. It could be that the application’s developers receive advertising revenue per click, but as for you, clicking such sites might be risky, because some of the displayed ads may have links to malicious websites. Given that the search engine is untrustworthy and it can be easily replaced with much safer alternatives, we do not think it is worth keeping it. This is why we have prepared manual removal instructions and placed them below the text. However, before you eliminate Detailexplore.com, we urge you to continue reading the text and learn more about the threat in case you ever encounter a similar one.
Usually, users download applications like Detailexplore.com either with bundled setup files or while clicking suspicious advertisements on the Internet. Thus, if you want to avoid installing untrustworthy software as this search engine, you should be more cautious in the future. For example, before the installation, you could find out who published the program, read some user or expert reviews, etc. The another way to keep the system clean is to use a reliable antimalware tool because it can warn the user about doubtful or malicious software. Also, some of the applications can make particular changes on the system, so you should always make sure you agree with them or else reject the program.
You will not see Detailexplore.com among the list of programs installed on the computer because it does not settle in by creating folders, files, or other data. Instead of doing so, the application should modify user’s browser settings and replace the homepage. As a result, the search engine is loaded each time you launch the browser, and if you decide to use it, the software can inject the results with ads. It is quite possible that the application’s creators receive particular amounts of money when you click their displayed ads. The worst part is that the advertisements may belong to the third party and the search engine’s developers neither review nor take any responsibility for them.
The third-party advertisements could do you harm if the clicked ads would redirect you to malicious web pages or if you would agree to install suspicious software while clicking them. Of course, we cannot say that all the ads displayed by Detailexplore.com might be harmful, but since they come from various third parties some of the advertisements could lead to sites containing malware or advertising other unreliable programs. Naturally, it might be safer for the system if you would stay away from such content, so our researchers recommend the application's removal.
