Have you ever heard of a software developer called SuperWeb? The company is widely known for releasing not only Dig Deep but many other adware-type programs, such as Sail Deals, Thirteen Degrees, Application Nation, Web Layers, and many others. These applications have everything in common, because they are all clones of each other. That is right: Only the names differ; the rest is the same. Dig Deep has a website, but it cannot be downloaded from it. However, we do know that you can get this extension by installing software bundles. Websites such as Cnet.com and Brothersoft.com are apt to host these kinds of bundles.
Dig Deep should show you ads labeled “Ads by Dig Deep,” “Provided by Dig Deep,” and so on. However, this might not always be the case. The extension has been made to the big three web browsers (Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, and Mozilla Firefox). The application displays various forms of ads that include, but are not limited to, banners, pop-unders, pop-ups, in-texts, full-page ads, and so on. Due to the fact that the promoted content is of unknown origin, at least to our knowledge, we deem it unreliable. You should not trust the advertisements, because they might redirect you to malicious websites.
The program’s developers have also made the program to collect information about you. Dig Deep’s Privacy Policy states that by contacting the developers you submit your personal information, such as your full name and other personal information to allow them to respond to your inquiry. It is also stated that the developers can get hold of information you may have made public. We think that they can find that out, because the application also collects non-personally identifiable information, such as search and browsing history. In order to collect non personal information the program uses Adobe Flash cookies, pixels, JavaScript, browser cookies, and so on.
It is clear that Dig Deep will not improve your browsing experience in any way. It will only show its presence by nagging you with various kinds of ads and silently collecting information about you. If you do not want Dig Deep to keep tabs on you, then you should remove it. Now, you can either delete it manually or you can get an anti-malware scanner that that will do it for you.
