Ffgogogo may not be a Web client that can compete with established Web clients in any way. It is a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) that may enter inconspicuously. The questionable application may then try to take advantage of the online actions of the user. Ffgogogo Browser may monetize your clicks on Web ads by transferring you to its partners. Ffgogogo may become your default browser automatically. The problems with this PUP may begin with the used distribution mechanisms. You may be surprised to find out that this questionable application has no official site. Even if you wish to find the program, you may waste a lot of time searching for a platform that hosts it. Ffgogogo relies on a suspicious delivery vector known as bundling. Some cost-free applications may load this PUP alongside themselves. If you download content from suspicious platforms like torrent trackers, the chances for the issue to occur would be higher. The 'Advanced' installation menu is considered the best guide for the loading of new programs because it may let you uncheck undesired parts of the bundle manually. Ffgogogo is built on the popular Chromium platform, which contains the source codes of Google Chrome. This fact may explain why these two Web clients may seem almost identical. Ffgogogo may come with a homepage that you may be unable to change. Whenever you go online, you may encounter a suspicious search site that displays manipulated results to bring you to affiliated domains. The PUP also may display large quantities of commercial materials like pop-ups and banners. Their loading may consume much of the available resources. As a result, Ffgogogo may function more slowly than Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox. In some cases, this dubious Web client may transfer you to potentially unsafe sites. It is recommended to delete the PUP with a renowned security solution.
