PC Privacy Dock
PC Privacy Dock is a program that supposedly can remove files that are “clogging and crowding your hard drive.” Our malware researchers have found that this beneficial-looking tool is just another PUP (potentially unwanted program). On top of that, it functions in the same way that PC Cleaner Pro and Optimizer Pro do, which suggests that these programs might have been created by the same company. Unfortunately, these programs do not fulfill their promises, which is why our researchers also identify them as fictitious system optimization software. The creators of this software promise beneficial services to trick users into installing it; however, once installed, they push users to pay money and contact remote technicians. ...
Registry Helper
Today, we have applications for all kinds of things that make our computing experience better, and Registry Helper is supposedly one such application.

This browser seems to be very beneficial, so it is not surprising that many computer users download it and install it on their systems.

WebDiscover Browser
WebDiscover Browser is a program which says that it will “broaden your horizons” and will also enable you to “experience everything the web has to offer”. It seems to be a really beneficial program, so it is not surprising that many computer users install it and keep it on their systems. It does not matter which OS runs on your computer because you will still see a bar at the top of your desktop after the installation of WebDiscover Browser. If it has appeared out of nowhere, there is a possibility that WebDiscover Browser has entered your system without your permission. It is up to you whether to keep it installed on the system; however, in our opinion, it would be better to get rid of it if you have downloaded it from some kind of untrustworthy third-party website because it might be modified by cyber criminals and do not act in a decent way. ...
