Hence, the browser add-on is categorized as adware and can be removed from the computer by reputable and powerful spyware and malware prevention tools.

InfoSeeker is published by Big Water Applications, and is also very similar to a potentially unwanted program called Websteroids. Both programs may offer you a widget for your browsers and may require that you change the home page and search provider of your Internet browsers. It is highly advisable to pay close attention to the installation process of any program because you may get the chance to prevent unwanted changes even if you are installing the program downloaded from its official website.
