FilmsApp Home
FilmsApp Home is a potentially unwanted program (PUP) that promises users free access to movies, TV series, reviews, and other similar content. Consequently, it might look useful for any user who occasionally searches for such content on the Internet. However, we doubt the application can provide the mentioned content itself. It is more likely that the extension can redirect the user to a website offering movies for free, for a monthly subscription, and so on. Moreover, users should know the PUP may work as a browser hijacker in a way since it could replace user’s default start page with an untrustworthy search engine. ...

Lite PDF Reader
Lite PDF Reader is a free PDF reader application that is probably the worst we have seen lately. This software is so "lite" that it does not even associate with .pdf files. This means that you need to open this application first in order to be able to open a .pdf file. So you can forget about double-clicking a file and have it opened easily. As a matter of fact, we have categorized it as a potentially unwanted program, or PUP. This clearly shows that this software does not cause direct danger to your computer, but there is still a chance that it has questionable background processes and that it may collect information about you that could be shared with potentially unreliable third parties. ...

EasyArcade New Tab Extension
EasyArcade New Tab Extension is a piece of software that can be directly downloaded from http://www.geteasyarcade.com or the Chrome Web Store. Users install it willingly expecting that it will give them access to thousands of free games. In reality, users can access websites where they can download .swf files from with its help, but they need to have another program to open them, so we definitely cannot call EasyArcade New Tab Extension a completely useless extension. No matter you have found it useful or not, this does not change the fact that it is a potentially unwanted program (PUP). ...
Formfetcherpro
If you install Formfetcherpro from http://www.formfetcherpro.com/index.jhtml or the Chrome Web Store (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/formfetcherpro/jcohbbeconnbknaeaodohnjcelemnlfc), it is only a question of time when you notice the altered browsers’ settings because this application does that. Users install it expecting that they could access governmental forms easier, but they get their web browsers’ settings changed instead. Of course, some users do not know that this program is capable of doing that, so it is a surprise for them that they see a new page every time they open their default browsers. ...
Tweakerbit Registry Optimizer
Tweakerbit Registry Optimizer might seem to be a useful program at first glance because it is promoted as a powerful registry optimizer. It claims that it can “effectively clean invalid registries accumulated in the system” in the blink of an eye, so it is not surprising at all that users install it on their computers seeking to clean their system registries and improve the performance of their computers. If you have not installed Tweakerbit Registry Optimizer on your PC yet, our advice for you would be to find and install another more trustworthy registry optimizer because this piece of software is known to be a potentially unwanted program. ...
ConvertDocsOnline Toolbar
ConvertDocsOnline Toolbar is a new questionable browser extension from the notorious Mindspark family that offers you free document and picture conversions through third-party websites. These features seem to work just fine; we cannot find anything malicious or suspicious about them. However, this extension also promotes a questionable search engine that may present to you potentially unreliable search results, which can pose a threat to your virtual security. In fact, this bad toolbar is very similar to all of its predecessors from the same family, including FileConvertOnline Toolbar, Formfetcherpro Toolbar, and EasyDirectionsFinder Toolbar. ...
