You can find useful information based on the words you highlight if you have WordSurfer installed on your Windows operating system. Unfortunately, besides providing seemingly beneficial translation and search services, this program can also inject suspicious offers and advertisements. Due to this, we recognize WordSurfer as an advertisement-supported program. If you remove this program, you will no longer be able to surf the web by highlighting the words you are interested in; however, you will shake off the possibility of encountering unreliable advertisements. Even though some users think they can avoid all security issues by ignoring online advertisements and pop-ups, we suggest deleting WordSurfer from your operating system right away. Continue reading to learn why this is our recommendation.

If you research the information provided at wordsurferapp.com, you should realize that WordSurfer is an ad-supported program because this is disclaimed in big print at the bottom of the home page. Once you learn this, we suggest clicking links to Terms of Service and Privacy Policy documents to learn more about this adware and its removal. For example, the “Sharing with Third Party Vendors” section in the Privacy Policy discloses that WordSurfer can share and transfer information regarding your virtual activity to third parties. We know that the WordShark and Wordinator both use an identical Privacy Policy. Along with a few other programs, these are the clones of WordSurfer, and they are removed as ad-supported programs as well. Unfortunately, the developer of these programs is concealed.

Even though wordsurferapp.com provides a lot of useful information that can help you realize the risks associated with WordSurfer, this website does not offer an installer. Have you downloaded this program from a different site? Maybe you have downloaded it packaged with other programs? Whatever the case, you must run a malware scanner to examine your operating system because it could be infected with malicious tracking cookies, concealed threats, and useless PUPs that also deserve removal. Of course, a reliable scanner will warn you to remove WordSurfer as well. This program uses wsasvc.exe*.32 (background process) to communicate with suspicious adware servers to inject "powered by WordSurfer" ads and other suspicious content. Even though, at first, this content might seem reliable, you might get yourself into trouble if you do not delete WordSurfer.

You do not want to have to tiptoe around the web knowing that any ad or link presented to you could be unreliable or malicious. Instead, you should install security software that will ensure that your activity is monitored to prevent malicious activity. Of course, you can take some control over your virtual security by removing unreliable, security-threatening programs. If you have decided that you want to delete WordSurfer, you can follow our removal guide below. If you are not sure about your manual removal skills, we can assure you that the right security software can delete all computer infections automatically. All in all, if you decide to complete the removal of WordSurfer manually, you must not forget to find and remove the remaining computer threats if they were installed.
