Do you know what Browser Bodyguard is?
It might really seem that Browser Bodyguard can help you to protect the system from malware because it promises to warn you if it detects a malicious website. Even though this program claims to be a powerful tool for those who do not want to encounter malware, you should know that this program might cause harm to your PC itself. Well, Browser Bodyguard is not very harmful, but it might display harmful ads. These advertisements might take to untrustworthy websites and you might infect your system with dozens of threats very quickly. As you have probably understood, it is extremely risky to keep this program installed. Of course, it is not as harmful as Trojans, rootkits, ransomware or other serious infections, but it is still unreliable and harmful.
It is not likely that Browser Bodyguard will help you to minimize the risk of downloading harmful viruses and malware as it promises because it has been published for different purposes. In fact, there are hundreds of other programs developed definitely not for the user’s benefit: Price-Horse, Price-Hipo, Price-Slayer, ProShopper, PriceChomper, and BrowserArmor. All the aforementioned programs act like Browser Bodyguard. In other words, they show commercial advertisements only. Our researchers claim that this program might also collect non-personally identifiable information in order to show you ads, so there is basically no doubt that Browser Bodyguard will record your search queries, the amount of time you spend browsing different websites, and even the links you click on them. Do not worry; you can stop this from happening by removing this program. Do not forget that other similar programs exist and it is very important to protect your system from them.
