The QuickyTranslator program is promoted on Quickytranslator.com and freeware packages as the best free-of-charge language translation app. The QuickyTranslator program is developed by Cross T Media and claims it can allow users to receive fast results on the words they want to be translated. Security experts warn users that this software does not have a stand-alone translation engine and may connect to online services like Google Translate, Gengo, and OneHourTranslation over insecure channels. The QuickyTranslator program may not satisfy your needs, and you could be offered to purchase a premium account to receive a better translation. As stated above, the QuickyTranslator app does not have a patented translation engine, and you need to pay additional fees to receive suggestions from multiple services in the program window of QuickyTranslator. The QuickyTranslator application is similar to Translate Genius and King Translate and may install a browser add-on, extension, and plug-in to allow real-time translation of text you mark with your mouse pointer on Web pages. Additionally, the QuickyTranslator application may edit your Windows Registry to run as a background process when your system starts. The QuickyTranslator application may read the Meta tags of pages you visit and display promotional materials by sponsors on banners and in-line ads. Security experts perceive the QuickyTranslator app as a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) that may not be your first choice when searching for translation services. You may want to remove the binary associated with QuickyTranslator by using a credible anti-spyware tool.
