PUPs are fundamentally applications that can install without requiring your explicit permission, and then try to deceive you into buying worthless services or attempt to get money in other ways. If your PUP is a computer optimizer or a security utility, the program would attempt to encourage you to buy the complete version of the program, while browser add-ons might display you loads of ads so as to make revenue. Since PUPs are of no use to you, it would be best if you remove Search Protect. (more…)
