The Musix Search browser extension by Zooms travels embedded with freeware setup files that most users handle with the 'Typical' or 'Express' option. Once the Musix Search extension is installed, it might change your default search aggregator, new tab, and homepage settings. The Musix Search app is promoted as a search service that allows users to listen to music for free and browse albums by their favorite musicians. However, the Musix Search application is perceived by security researchers as a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) with adware functionality. The Musix Search app can read the metadata of web pages you visit and substitute the native ads with marketing materials by sponsors. Also, it may ask for your Facebook and Google account credentials in order to customize the marketing content presented to you. Security researchers add that the Musix Search extension may ask you to sync your phone contacts on devices with Zooms products and use the information to generate custom-made ads. You should note that information shared with Zooms is automatically sent to advertisers, and you may not wish to share your Internet and download history with third parties. Computer users may decide to remove all files associated with the Musix Search application with the help of a reputable anti-spyware tool.
