If there is suddenly a new tab on your browser that offers you to search for music, perhaps you have added musicFinder Search without even realizing it. It is a browser extension that is compatible with the Chrome browser. It is supposed to improve your online experience, but a lot of users complain that this extension has a lot of side effects. It could be quite intrusive, so it would be for the best to remove musicFinder Search from your browser today. You can find the manual removal instructions if you scroll down, but you can also get rid of this extension automatically.

We would like to point out that this extension might be just one of the many unwanted applications that you have installed on your computer. That is so because of the peculiarities of freeware distribution. While we can download this extension from its official homepage, and there is also a page on the Chrome Web Store, it is far more likely that this extension entered your computer in a software bundle. A software bundle usually refers to a third-party installer that carries more than one application. Those bundles can be downloaded from file-sharing websites, and users are often not aware of that.

Hence, if you want to avoid adding musicFinder Search to your browser, you should refrain from downloading programs from third-party sources. If you must have a particular application, and it is only available on file-sharing websites, you should check all the steps in the installation wizard one by one. It is very often that you can choose to deselect the unnecessary features along the way, but users fail to do that when they breeze through the setup. In other words, the state of your computer’s security is almost always in your hands, and you need to take it seriously.

Luckily, musicFinder Search does not exhibit extremely dangerous performance patterns. This extension will surely change your default search engine, but that is very common among such applications. According to the official homepage via myappzcenter.com, the modifications are performed to provide you with custom service, so you could “easily listen and stream the latest music of your favorite artists.” However, with your default search engine changed, it is very likely that this extension will also employ tracking cookies to monitor your web browsing history. Although such monitoring cannot collect your personal information, it can still prove to be detrimental to your system’s security.

The point is that such information on your web browsing habits can help third parties promote custom commercial content. After all, if you see some content that is related to your likes and preferences, perhaps you are more likely to click it. And this is exactly what musicFinder Search and other similar programs may need. With each click you make, these programs generate a financial profit.

This practice could fall out of hand if the advertising network gets exploited by cyber criminals. Therefore, you need to make sure that you remove musicFinder Search right now to avoid such consequences.
