Safe Browsing

Safe Browsing offers you enhanced browser performance and secure browsing; however, by having this application on your computer, you might actually be exposed to virtual security and privacy issues. This program has been categorized as adware due to its function to show third-party advertisements in the form of pop-ups and banners on e-commerce websites. It is essential to understand what kind of threats you might encounter if this adware has sneaked onto your system. It is also important to know your options in protecting your PC from such infections. Some users think that it is enough to close these ads, but you need to understand that this will not make the adware disappear, and the potential threat of damaging your computer will still be there. Thus, we recommend that you delete Safe Browsing before you have more serious security issues to handle.

Safe Browsing is based on the DealPly engine that was also used in the case of Security Utility and WebEnhance. This adware has a website, safe1browsing.net, but it is hardly functional since it is impossible to download or install the application directly from the site. Therefore, the most likely means of transportation for this adware is in free software packages. The bad news is that there may be packages that contain several malware applications bundled together with legitimate freeware. These are mostly promoted on questionable websites associated with online piracy, such as torrent sites. We recommend that you refrain from visiting such pages and only use reputable ones to download free software.

Whatever Safe Browsing advertises about itself is indeed all a hoax. All it does is annoy and disrupt you with third-party advertisements whenever you decide to go shopping online. The tricky thing about this adware is that it can collect information about your virtual activities, including what kind of websites you visit, how much time you tend to spend there, what kinds of ads you click on, what kinds of products you are interested in, and more. It is not hard to display customized ads for you based on this so that you feel the attraction and the need to click on them. But be aware that this might be a trap. Cyber criminals may use these ads to trick you and navigate you to unreliable websites. Once you land on a page that is operated by schemers, you may infect your computer with more malware programs or even disclose your personal and banking details. If you do not want to lose your precious money or cause damage to your operating system, you should delete Safe Browsing now.

We hope that, by now, you see why it is important that you clean your system of Safe Browsing adware. We have provided you a quick and easy-to-follow guide below the article to assist you with this. Please, remember that there may be further threats that need your attention.
