If your video always buffers when you try to load it on YouTube or any other website, chances are that it has something to do with your internet service package or your internet service provider. Relying on the likes of Youtube Accelerator Helper to solve this problem will not do any good. In fact, you will most probably get into even deeper trouble as this application is categorized as potentially unwanted program. It is in your best interest to remove Youtube Accelerator Helper from the system, especially if you did not intend to have the application in the first place.

Youtube Accelerator Helper is compatible Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox web browsers. Based on our research, this application does not work on Google Chrome. However, that does not mean that you can simply ignore Youtube Accelerator Helper if you are using Google Chrome as your default browser. The application can still be installed on your computer without any difficulties.

There are two main ways for Youtube Accelerator Helper’s distribution. You can download the application at youtubeaccelerator.com. Downloading the program from the official website does not install any additional applications, but the thing is that users more often than not download such programs bundled with freeware. It means that Youtube Accelerator Helper usually comes together with a number of other potentially unwanted applications from third-party file hosting websites. According to our research, this application is usually bundled with Better Installer Downloader.

What is more, when Youtube Accelerator Helper comes with a list of other applications, it is very likely that your homepage and default search engine will be modified to www-search.net. This search engine is often considered to be a browser hijacker because it collects information on your web browsing habits, redirects you to potentially malicious websites and changes your browser settings without any morning. On top of that, Youtube Accelerator Helper may also install Shopper-Pro add-on on your browser that should help you save money while you shop online. Needless to say, that the add-on simply spams you with commercial content, potentially exposing you to dangerous websites.

All in all, if you have installed Youtube Accelerator Helper on your computer accidentally, you should remove the application as soon as possible. It is also highly advisable to run a full system scan with SpyHunter free scanner since you need to check for other potentially undesirable programs. In case you detect more than just one unwanted program, uninstall them via Control Panel (if possible), and then invest in a reliable antispyware tool that would terminate all the leftover files and registry entries.
