EnigmaSoft Threat Scorecard
EnigmaSoft Threat Scorecards are assessment reports for different malware threats which have been collected and analyzed by our research team. EnigmaSoft Threat Scorecards evaluate and rank threats using several metrics including real-world and potential risk factors, trends, frequency, prevalence, and persistence. EnigmaSoft Threat Scorecards are updated regularly based on our research data and metrics and are useful for a wide range of computer users, from end users seeking solutions to remove malware from their systems to security experts analyzing threats.
EnigmaSoft Threat Scorecards display a variety of useful information, including:

Web surfers that use the CleverSearch browser add-on may want to know that it doesn't have a valid digital certificate issued by a trusted authority, and it may connect to the Web via insecure channels. Security researchers underline that unencrypted communication between your PC and other PCs exposes you to 'man-in-the-middle' attacks that can introduce corrupted binary in your system. The CleverSearch app may have been promoted as a tool to help you search faster on Google, but it is adware. The main purpose of CleverSearch is to display advertisements and generate pay-per-click revenue for its creators. The CleverSearch adware may place banners at the top and bottom section of web pages you visit and insert contextual commercials to deliver marketing content. You should note that the CleverSearch adware may use tracking cookies and read your Internet history to load tailor-suited ads. CleverSearch is similar to other adware like SunriseBrowse and SuperIntext and may show pop-up windows with video ads to focus your attention on premium offers. Needless to say, the CleverSearch adware may obstruct your Internet activities and prevent you from enjoying video content on websites like YouTube. Also, the CleverSearch adware may promote apps like Oxy Torrent and UpdaterEx that have a bad reputation and may decrease your system performance. Security researchers add that the CleverSearch adware may launch a background service when you start Windows due to a registry key it placed upon installation. You may want to use a trusted anti-spyware tool to remove the CleverSearch adware and ensure the optimal performance of your PC.
