Enhanced Search may keep track of the PC user's browsing habits. Enhanced Search may alter system settings that may result in delivery of disturbing pop-up ads and unwanted redirects of the Web browser to sponsored websites such as Enhanced-search.com. Enhanced Search may embed its own add-on, plug-in or browser extension in all Web browsers that are installed on the computer system.
