Win Boost Pro 2018
Not all the programs that look beneficial are really useful. The same can be said about Win Boost Pro 2018. The application is presented as a tool that can optimize and speed up the computer in no time, but users soon realize that it only scans the system and lists detected issues. Do not expect that Win Boost Pro 2018 will fix those issues and clean your computer for free. You will be asked to upgrade it first. This program is advertised as a tool designed to keep PCs “running smooth, fast, and error free;” however, we would not invest in it if we were you. ...
MapsScout
What for did you download MapsScout? If you downloaded it to help you with directions or help you look up maps, you must be disappointed. Although the word “maps” is in the name, the application has nothing to do with actual maps. In fact, the only thing it is capable of doing is showing advertisements. This is not entirely surprising, considering that the description on the Chrome web store informs that the application is meant to show ads based on your own browsing data. Did you download the extension from chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/mapsscout-advertising-off/fjclfmhapndgeabdcikbhemimpijpnah? ...
Free Forms Now
It is not very likely that specialists are going to stop releasing potentially unwanted software soon. Specialists still detect it quite often. Free Forms Now is one of those potentially unwanted applications specialists working at 411-spyware.com have come across recently. It may be installed on users’ computers without their knowledge, but some users download and install it on their computers consciously too. Free Forms Now can be downloaded from https://freeformsnow.com/ by Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox users, whereas Google Chrome users can get it directly from the Chrome Web Store (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/free-form-now/lpdmnkfdkmmpgohfmgmpapjmhffgglpg). ...
Music Browsing Extension
Do you stream music on your computer? What kind of application do you use? Have you ever heard of Music Browsing Extension? This browser extension should help you stream your favorite music, but a lot of users do not understand how it entered their systems. The point is that sometimes such applications come in software packages with other programs, and users install them willingly even if they are not aware of it. In this description, we will let you know more about this extension, and you will also find the manual removal instructions at the bottom of the page. ...
Speedy PC Pro 2018
Speedy PC Pro 2018 is a system optimization tool that is classified as a potentially unwanted program. It does not mean that the application is harmful or dangerous. We are more concerned about the possibility that you might install this program on your computer accidentally. If that really happens, it is recommended to remove Speedy PC Pro 2018 from the system because it might take up space, and it can exhibit undesirable behavior. While you are at it, you should also look for other unwanted applications that could have entered your system together with this optimization tool. ...
TVStreamNow Toolbar
TVStreamNow Toolbar is one of the Mindspark family's potentially unwanted programs. The extension places a few icons on the browser and offers lists of movies, and TV series users can watch on various paid streaming web pages as well as links to popular web pages (e.g., Facebook). Moreover, the application might hijack Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox by replacing their default new tab pages. It means the affected browser may open a tab with a particular website belonging to the potentially unwanted program when the user launches it. ...
Driver Tonic
Driver Tonic seems to be a PUP or a potentially unwanted program. Our specialists say it searches for outdated drivers or old Registry entries and then suggest fixing the issues to improve the user’s PC experience. The free version allows to eliminate a few detections without buying the software, but afterward, the user could be asked to purchase it. From what we have seen while testing the application, we suspect the tool might be pretending to be fixing issues because we did not see anything different about the test computer. This makes us doubt not only the application’s capability of updating drives or performing its other tasks but also the capability of enchanting the computer’s performance. ...
Speedy SystemCare
If you are not yet ready to pay for a PC optimization tool, you should not install Speedy SystemCare. Even though it seems to be a beneficial application, you should install another program on your computer because a free version of Speedy SystemCare is not as useful as it might seem to be at first glance. No, it is not malicious, but it works as a diagnostic tool only. Of course, you could upgrade it to unlock its other features, but we are not so sure that it is worth investing in the tool that has been classified by specialists as a potentially unwanted program. ...
Super Tuneup
When we encounter Super Tuneup, it says that the program has “advanced features and powerful tools” that “help enhance PC speed with ease and improve your experience exclusively.” In other words, the application is a system optimization tool, and computer security experts always warn users that they should not trust such applications blindly. Therefore, if you ended up with this program on your computer accidentally, you can remove Super Tuneup today by following the instructions you will find at the bottom of this description. ...
AutoFixer Pro 2018
Sometimes when our computers become slow, we turn to third-party applications to make them fast again. AutoFixer Pro 2018 is one of such applications that say they could improve your system’s performance. That is why we call it the system optimization tool. However, it might also be a potentially unwanted program if it enters your system without your permission. That is to say, you DO allow it to enter your system, but you are not aware of it. How does this happen? Continue reading, and we will also tell you how to remove AutoFixer Pro 2018 from your system for good. ...
