Browser Guardian Removal Guide

Do you know what Browser Guardian is?

Advertising-supported applications tend to install additional software alongside. Thus, you might also have Browser Guardian on your system, if it is infected by some kind of adware, for instance, Savings Wave, Sharp Savings, KeyCoupons, and the like. Browser Guardian tends to be installed silently; thus, it is not surprising if you have not noticed how it entered the system. Luckily, this piece of software is not very harmful; however, it is still classified as a potentially unwanted application because it is closely related to different kinds of adware programs. If you do not want to keep suspicious applications on the system, you should definitely get rid of Browser Guardian as soon as possible.

Browser Guardian itself is a program that promises to help computer users avoid harmful websites. The user is allowed to add unsafe domains himself/herself; thus, it seems as a rather useful application. The research implemented in the lab of spyware-techie.com has shown that this program is compatible with all the most popular browsers, including Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, and Mozilla Firefox, which means that the users of any of these browsers will see a warning if the website, which they are going to visit, is unreliable. Even though the program seems useful, we still do not recommend keeping it on the system because it has entered with malware and might act in an undesirable way.Browser Guardian Removal GuideBrowser Guardian screenshot
