LuckyBrowse is a dubious browser extension that may be found in low-quality software bundles that use deceptive methods to trick users into agreeing to install 3rd-party software unknowingly. The LuckyBrowse software is installed as a Web browser extension which, according to the LuckyBrowse's website, is supposed to improve the user's Web browsing experience drastically by providing them with content suggestions and access to an advanced search engine that can provide them with the most relevant results. However, LuckyBrowse's ability to provide users with relevant content is highly questionable, and the presentation of this extension doesn't mention that users who install LuckyBrowse also agree to have advertisements injected in their active Web browser windows.

The LuckyBrowse extension is identified as adware by most popular anti-malware scanners, and the removal of this extension is strongly recommended if you want to get rid of the tedious marketing content LuckyBrowse may inject in your Web browser. The advertisements that LuckyBrowse may displays may include promotional deals, offers, coupon codes, and other content associated with online shopping. However, these offers may include offers from low-quality online markets that are neither reputable nor reliable, and that's why you should not make any purchase of goods or services found through the LuckyBrowse's advertisements.

Keep in mind that LuckyBrowse isn't threatening, and seeing its ads isn't a reason to be worried. However, the marketing content associated with LuckyBrowse's installation may diminish your Web browsing experience, and this is a valid reason to fully remove t LuckyBrowse from your computer.
