Search Manager
If you use Google Chrome, you might decide to install Search Manager. This extension is compatible only with this particular web browser, and it is unlikely that it will cross-over. Although we have not seen this program entering operating systems without permission (i.e., illegally), some computer users quickly classify it as a browser hijacker that requires urgent removal. This is mainly because this Chrome extension can change the default search provider and switch your regular homepage for a New Tab page. ...

Computer Software Market
Even though Computer Software Market is supposed to let you choose what to install from tons of free applications, it could also download a few programs without your knowledge. What's more, the software could gather information about you and use it for marketing purposes. This data could be personal, such as telephone number or email address, and it could be non-personal like visited websites, viewed ads, etc. Furthermore, the application is considered to be a potentially unwanted program (PUP). ...
Seen On Screen
Seen On Screen is an application that is aimed at people who are interested in movies because it promises to enable users to find latest show reviews and interviews, video streaming websites, and trailers. The program itself is developed by APN, LLC, and it is available for download on seen-on-screen.thewhizmarketing.com. In fact, only the extension for Google Chrome is available on the website; however, it is known that the version for Mozilla Firefox exists too. As it is not promoted on the official website, it is very likely that it finds other ways to sneak onto computers. ...

However, after analyzing this application, we have classified it as potentially unwanted, and we recommend that you remove it. We do not consider this program as malicious, but it is useless because it does not do anything relevant that you could benefit from. We believe that it is used to promote a certain search engine and help generate advertising revenue. ...

FixPCOptimizer is not a tool that you want to use for your computers optimization. For starters, the application falls into the category of potentially unwanted program (PUP), and it does not say anything good about it. In most cases, users are deceived by PUPs, and when they realize that the software will not work as it should, they want to get rid of it. Likewise, our researchers learned that this optimizer does not work properly too, as it constantly crashes. ...
Clean PC Master
Clean PC Master masquerades as a computer-cleaning, optimization, and anti-malware program, but the truth is that it is just another scam program that you ought to remove. Clean PC Master falls into the category of potentially unwanted programs because it performs none of the claimed functions and uses deceitful methods to pressure you to purchase it. This application is unreliable because it is prone to crash and render fake error messages. After examining this application, we have come to the conclusion that it is utterly worthless. ...
HolaInput
HolaInput is a potentially unwanted program that is officially promoted at holainput.com. According to our researchers, deskick.com is identical to this website, and it is quite possible that other sites alike exist as well. Needless to say, the more sources this PUP is available from, the more users are likely to install it onto their computers. Well, why would you install this program? The services of this PUP are useless, and it is unlikely that computer users will rush to install it even if it is free. ...

Of course, it might be available for download on other web pages too or even slither onto the computer without permission.

The majority of people do that because they expect that they will find all web pages associated with business in one place, could search the web easily, and will be able to read the latest news. ...
