The PhraseFinder program is classified by security researchers as adware that might use pop-up windows, banners, contextual and transitional ads to deliver marketing content into your web browser. You may wish to know that the PhraseFinder adware is connected to others of its kind like InfoAtoms and Search Snacks, and you may be offered to install them as helpful extensions. The PhraseFinder adware is deployed embedded with freeware setup files that most users carelessly install via the 'Express' or 'Typical' option. Security researchers note that the PhraseFinder adware may appear as a browser plugin in order to execute its operations and generate pay-per-click revenue for its developers. The PhraseFinder adware may read your Internet history and detect your approximate geographical location in order to display customized commercials. You should keep in mind that ads by adware such as the PhraseFinder are not considered as safe, and you might be directed to visit untrusted web pages.
