Gsafe is advertised as a program that will help computer users when they are online shopping by displaying offers, promo-codes, coupons and deals. Unfortunately, these advertisements may not be useful despite the fact that they may be based on data collected by Gsafe from your browsing preferences. What makes Gsafe to be classified as a Possibly Unwanted Program is the huge amount of advertisements that Gsafe may display, whether you want it or not. Gsafe may improve Web pages' text and turn it into hyperlinks that, if accessed, may lead to compromised Web pages. Gsafe's advertisements are very intrusive and may end up disrupting your Web browsing. Computer users that have Gsafe installed on their machines may want to remove Gsafe. An anti-malware tool should be used when removing Gsafe from the affected computer.
