IdeaReference

Posted: June 11, 2020

IdeaReference is an intrusive application that appears to target Mac computers exclusively. When IdeaReference is installed, it will make a 'Device Profile' for itself, as well as set up a new 'Launch Daemon' that ensures that the program will continue to operate if the computer is restarted. Finally, IdeaReference will apply changes to your Web browser's behavior by causing unexpected redirects to 3rd-party sites, as well as by modifying your default search engine to the Safe Finder Search. Finally, IdeaReference also may increase the number of advertisements you see online.

Anti-virus products categorize IdeaReference as adware and recommend its removal. This application has no redeemable features, and it is best to remove it from your system by using a suitable adware removal utility.
