CloudScout from CloudGuard.me may attract parents because it provides parental control features that will enable them to set rules for web surfing. CloudScout can be downloaded from its official website and can be acquired through free software bundles. However, CloudScout can be tagged as a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) because it will provide free-of-charge features on the basis of advertisement content being pushed in your web browsers. The advertisement abundance may trouble computer users, and you might want to remove CloudScout from your PC. An anti-spyware program can help you recognize PUPs and protect you from malicious software.
