Surf Safer

Surf Safer by Intriguing Apps is a deceptive Web extension that may be compatible with Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox and Internet Explorer. The specialists classify Surf Safer as adware because it may create additional Web ads that you may detect during your surfing sessions consistently. The company behind Surf Safer promotes it as a legit tool that will guarantee your online security. In theory, this adware is expected to prevent the loading of all sites that may cause damage to your system or attempt to trick you. However, this simple add-on cannot take care of your PC's security. Intriguing Apps uses this appealing description only to make it more likely for the PC user to approve its installation. Once Surf Safer enters, you may start finding new pop-ups, banners, embedded videos or interstitial ads, some of which may have the slogan 'Brought by Surf Safer.' If you find such commercial materials but you cannot recall installing the corresponding application, then Surf Safer most likely sneaked in unnoticed in some software bundle. At first, some users may enjoy seeing various coupons, discount offers or special deals. These ads may be relevant to your recent searches because the adware may have access to all kinds of non-personally identifiable information regarding your surfing habits. However, as the time passes, you may notice that a significant part of the new ads are not helpful. The sponsored links may not improve your online shopping because they may transfer you to suspicious sites that you cannot trust with your money. In some cases, the marketing materials by Surf Safer may load compromised domains that spread harmful content. You may notice a rise in the time necessary to load the Web pages. This issue may occur because of the multimedia ads, which are resource-consuming. Some users may note that Surf Safer sometimes causes annoying freezes or crashes. It may be difficult to eliminate Surf Safer via the add-on managers, so you should consider using advanced security software.
