The DNS Keeper software can be obtained via freeware packages. You may want to know that the DNS Keeper software is deployed by the same company behind CloudGuard and CloudScout and is deemed as adware. The DNS Keeper app may claim to provide safety, but it will change your DNS settings to reroute your Internet traffic through the servers of advertisers to ensure that you are provided with marketing materials by its sponsors. The DNS Keeper adware might present you with pop-up windows, video ads, in-text hyperlinks to sponsored content and banners. Needless to say, the DNS Keeper adware may provide you with links to harmful domains and corrupted online resources as long as its developers are paid to do so. Security analysts note that the DNS Keeper adware may appear on your 'Programs and Features' module of 'Control panel' as a browser plug-in, and it can affect all major Web browsers. Additionally, the DNS Keeper adware will add a task in the Windows Task Scheduler named 'DNSZELL' to ensure that it will run every time you log on to your OS. The DNS Keeper adware may read your bookmarks and the metadata of pages you visit to display customized advertisements and earn more pay-per-click revenue. Also, the DNS Keeper adware may change your default homepage to Sweeppleasure.xyz and Contenko.com that are associated with browser hijackers. You may want to use a credible anti-spyware tool to restore your default DNS settings and eradicate the DNS Keeper adware from your PC.
