ContentExplorer Removal Guide

ContentExplorer is a suspicious application which you can install onto the Windows operating system. The application is categorized as a potentially undesirable program because it can connect to the Internet without your permission and has the ability to auto start together with Windows. Even though such activity is not considered to be extremely malicious or dangerous, you certainly should not ignore suspicious software which may run on the PC in this manner. If you are one of the many computer users who choose to delete ContentExplorer from the operating system, you should continue reading the report to learn how to perform the task quickly and effortlessly.

The developer of the potentially undesirable program ContentExplorer is Lake Ventures, LLC and most download it from the official download page contentexplorer.net. This is not a misleading website and you can refer to it for more information about the application, especially if you are interested in the related privacy policies. As our virtual security researchers identify, ContentExplorer can install web cookies and allow third parties to install their own cookies to collect information about your operating system, geographical location and certain web browsing habits. In the best case scenario, the collected information should help the developers of the program to enhance the available services.

There is no question why computer users choose to install ContentExplorer onto their PCs. The program is meant to alleviate online information searches. The application is supposed to provide you with access to Wikipedia and other similar websites providing you with more information every time you choose to highlight a word or phrase found on some web page. What computer users overlook or ignore is that the application is ad-supported, which means that it will allow the presentation of online advertisements in order to ensure free services. In fact, it has been discovered that the application could enter the PC bundled with adware installers. Needless to say, not all advertisement supported programs are authentic and reliable, and clicking on the displayed ads is not always secure.

If you do not want to remove ContentExplorer from the PC, you definitely should install authentic Windows security software. If you do not take care of the operating system, you could risk your own virtual security every single time you click on the presented pop-up/banner advertisements. We recommend installing automatic malware removal software even if you choose to delete ContentExplorer manually (see the removal guides below) because your operating needs reliable full-time protection.
