ClearScreen Player is not a media player that you should trust. ClearScreen Player is a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) that may create a variety of problems. The most notable issues that ClearScreen Player may cause concern your Web clients. Since ClearScreen Player is free, its developers may use commercial materials to get revenues. However, the pop-ups, banners, interstitial ads or sponsored videos that may be displayed by this PUP may be too aggressive. You may see them on various Web pages, which may soon enough become a real problem. Moreover, some multimedia ads may seize much of the available resources of the Web clients, which may cause annoying freezes and crashes. Some users who find ClearScreen Player in their Control Panel may have no idea how it reached their systems. The creators of this PUP may spread it in a set with other freeware. Less-attentive PC users who don't read details may agree to install it without knowing. Those people who perform the loading process via the 'Advanced' menu, on the other hand, may be able to opt-out of loading ClearScreen Player before it may cause the mentioned problems. According to the description of this PUP, ClearScreen Player should allow you to watch your favorite videos without a browser. However, you will still have to launch an application that may require too many resources to function. ClearScreen Player may change both your homepage and search provider. ClearScreen Player will not ask you explicitly if you approve these modifications. As far as it concerns the developers, you have already agreed when you installed their product. You should be very careful with its coupons and discounts. Some of them may open harmful domains that spread potentially threatening software. The experts note that ClearScreen Player may be immune to the conventional uninstall methods, so you should delete ClearScreen Player with a trustworthy security application.
