Privacy Dr
Privacy Dr is a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) by EuroTrade, whose purpose is to keep your data from being shared with other online parties or collected by cyber crooks. Overall, the application may seem like a great utility that can help you clean your computer of cookies, saved passwords, usernames, autofill form data, messenger chats and other details that are usually stored on your hard disk immediately. However, Privacy Dr also may exhibit an annoying behavior that most users may not be happy with. For example, Privacy Dr's free version may be unable to carry out a significant number of the tasks advertised on the software's Web page, and users may be asked to pay for the full version of Privacy Dr if they want to clean all traces of their online activity.
Apart from misleading its users, Privacy Dr also may take advantage of unfair distribution techniques to reach potential buyers. Some software bundles may include offers to install Privacy Dr, and sometimes the authors of these bundles may disguise offers to install Privacy Dr so that there will be a higher chance that users will agree to introduce this PUP to their computers unknowingly. Thankfully, Privacy Dr doesn't exhibit threatening behavior, nor does it threaten your data from being collected. Regardless of this, users who have Privacy Dr on their computers and don't recall agreeing to install it should remove this PUP as soon as possible. The removal of Privacy Dr should be executed with the help of a reputable anti-malware solution to ensure that none of the PUP's components will be left behind.
