Do you know what Clean Browser is?
Clean Browser is a mysterious browser extension because it hides the services it actually is related to. On the official web page (clean-browser.com) it is disclosed that this extension can ‘safeguard your browsing experience’. However, it is not revealed that as soon as you install the application, you will be introduced to different pop-up and banner advertisements instead. Based on this, you should delete Clean Browser as an advertisement-supported program, not a regular application. As you may know already, this type of software may run with the help of adware helpers (e.g., BenchUpdater) which require removal as well. Continue reading to learn how to delete this undesirable and suspicious software from the operating system.

Even though Clean Browser may seem like one of a kind to most computer users, malware researchers warn that this application is almost identical to Browse Safe, Savings Wave, Savings Season, Sharp Savings, and other adware designed and distributed by Engaging Apps. Note that this company may also be listed as Exciting Apps, Innovative Apps or Smart Apps. Regardless of the name, Clean Browser is set to collect information about you, and in some cases this could involve personally identifiable information. Note that this is disclosed within the Privacy Policy at clean-browser.com/privacy.php. It is also disclosed that the extension presents third-party links, and this is not compatible with the protection of virtual security. If you do not remove Clean Browser, there is a great chance that sooner or later you will be introduced to unreliable offers. This is exactly the kind of risk you need to avoid.
To perform Clean Browser removal successfully you need to decide which removal option is best. You may believe that you can delete Clean Browser manually; however, if you do not have the experience and skills, it is unlikely that you will be able to remove adware components, adware helpers and other undesirable software successfully. Keep in mind that potentially undesirable programs may be installed together with adware without authorization, and so they should be deleted as well.
