From the offset, we can already say with confidence that BCool is of no use whatsoever to the user, and therefore, in our opinion, users should remove it.

Nevertheless, as far as BCool’s functionality goes, it can also collect relatively sensitive information about the user. It can collect such information as browsing history, search queries, IP addresses, and so on. For the most part, the information collection is done in order to deliver customized ads to a specific user based on his browsing habits and interests. Nevertheless, we consider it to be a breach of personal privacy and therefore recommend that you remove BCool immediately. It is also worth mentioning that it may display various ads encouraging users to download system utility tools, such as Java or Adobe Flash players. However, the good news is that most of the BCool ads have labels such as “Ad by Bcool.” Hence, we recommended not clicking on any such ads.

All in all, we recommend that users remove BCool at their earliest convenience (preferably after reading this article), because it has no added value to the user. On top of that, it has the ability to collect information about the user in order to make changes to the developers' marketing strategies to make more money.
