Posted: June 8, 2020

SmartQuestSearch is a Mac application whose installation often may occur by accident since it tends to be spread via software bundles that may use misleading or confusing instructions to trick more users into approving of SmartQuestSearch's installation. Once SmartQuestSearch is active on your Mac, it will not introduce any noticeable changes when it comes to overall computer behavior. However, you are bound to encounter some undesirable changes as soon as you launch your favorite Web browser.

SmartQuestSearch will act like adware and insert a wide range of advertisements whenever it notices that your Web browser is being used. The advertising techniques that the SmartQuestSearch adware uses are very diverse and users affected by this adware are likely to encounter pop-ups, text/image banners, full-page advertisements, video advertisements, redirects and more.

Needless to say, the behavior that SmartQuestSearch exhibits is not user-friendly, and it may make some websites impossible to navigate by displaying tons of advertisements on top of them. The best way to put an absolute end to this activity is to use a sophisticated Mac anti-virus scanner that will help you identify and remove all components related to SmartQuestSearch's activity.
