The Chromatic Browser by H.M.L. Software Ltd. is advertised with four essential features, namely: no censorship; better privacy; speed and ability to save you money on sites like Amazon and eBay. You could download the Chromatic Browser from Chromatic Browse.com and install it as an additional offer to a free software package. However, users may want to know that Chromatic Browser is perceived as a Potentially Unwanted Program that could push a torrent of promotions on your screen. The Chromatic Browser is supported by third-party advertisers that will place tracking cookies on your PC and use information like your bookmarks and browsing history to display related commercials in the Chromatic Browser. You should take into consideration the fact that the developers of the Chromatic Browser disclaim any responsibility regarding the ads by sponsors. When you click on the ads provided by Chromatic Browser, it is at your risk, and you could be redirected to phishing pages and download programs like Windows Health Center and Windows Multi Control System. Additionally, the Giftbox extension that is incorporated in the Chromatic Browser will monitor your Internet activities and may substitute the safe ads on Amazon and eBay with commercials from untrusted e-commerce rivals. When visiting YouTube, the Chromatic Browser may deliberately disable your Adobe Flash Player to convince you to install HD4Ever and Vidzy and earn pay-per-install revenue for its developers. As stated above, you could install the Chromatic Browser unintentionally, and it will modify your Windows registry to be set as your default Internet client. You should carefully reconsider its functionality and might want to remove it from your PC with the help of a reliable anti-malware suite.
