Search People

Perhaps you would like to have most of your acquaintances at your fingertips, and Search People looks like a program that could help you do that. However, you should think twice before you install this extension on your browser because our security experts say Search People is a potentially unwanted program. When a program falls into this category, it means that it could be associated with specific security issues or installed on your computer without your permission. Whichever it might be, it would be for the best to remove Search People from your system immediately because you can never foresee the potential side effects.

Unlike most of the potentially unwanted programs, Search People affects only the Google Chrome browser. This application is a browser extension, and it can be downloaded from the Chrome Web Store. This definitely works in favor of the program because when an application is available at the Chrome Web Store, it looks like the app is useful and reliable. Nevertheless, you will do yourself a favor if you go through the user reviews presented on the Chrome website. From the user reviews, you will see that they are very dissatisfied with the application, and most of them have trouble removing it.

On top of that, judging from the reviews, most of the users do not even know how Search People entered their computer because they claim they have not downloaded it from the Chrome Web Store. This suggests that the application gets distributed via other methods as well. For instance, Search People might come in a software package via file-sharing websites. Thus, there is a good chance that you can get infected with this application when you download some freeware apps on a daily basis. This also means that it is possible to avoid installing potentially unwanted and dangerous applications as long as you are responsible for the websites you visit and the programs you download.

Our research and the user reviews at the Chrome Web Store suggest that Search People is an extremely annoying application that can interfere with your web browsing process. It will launch a search window in the bottom left corner of your browser, and it will use a search engine that has nothing to do with your default search provider. From our tests, we have found that Search People employs the zabasearch.com search engine. Since this is a third-party search engine that has not been certified by reliable security applications, it would be unwise to enter any search queries into it.

All in all, you should remove Search People because the application clearly comes uninvited. Also, if you encounter the extension in the Chrome Web Store, you should read the user reviews before installing it. Luckily, it is possible to get rid of this application by removing it with the Chrome extensions manager. If you think that there might be more unwanted applications on your system, you should seriously consider scanning the PC with the SpyHunter free scanner. This way you will be able to determine what programs should be terminated at once.

Should you encounter any difficulties while trying to delete Search People, do not hesitate to leave us a comment. However, you should also invest in a legitimate antispyware tool that would keep your system protected from similar intruders in the future.
