Computer users that recognize the power of browsers like Opera, Mozilla Firefox, and Google Chrome, and like freeware may be surprised with the TappyTop Browser opening up when they click on a link inside a chat window. The TappyTop Browser may become your default Internet browser when you install freeware packages that include applications like Info Seeker and Glomatron. Security experts reveal that the TappyTop Browser is very similar to the Hyper Browser and is built upon the Chromium Project that is used to create the SRWare Iron Browser. You can find the official page of the TappyTop Browser at Tappytop.com and may want to read the terms of use carefully. The development of the TappyTop Browser is aided by advertisers and merchants that may have access to data like your bookmarks, search history and downloads log. The TappyTop Browser software is labeled by security researchers as a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) that may allow users to load content from the Web via unprotected HTTP channels and show many advertisements.
The main executable of the TappyTop Browser may be detected by scanners under the tags PUA/Linkury.Gen, PUP.Optional.Linkury, Riskware/Linkury and Win32: Malware-gen. The TappyTop Browser comes from Linkury Ltd. that is known for releasing browser hijackers, adware and riskware among PC users. Responsible computer users might wish to avoid installing the TappyTop Browser because it does not support the secure HTTPS, SSL and SHA protocols. The TappyTop Browser should not be used to access your online banking accounts. Additionally, the TappyTop Browser may prevent users from opening Google.com, Bing.com, and Yahoo.com because it may redirect users to Search.tappytop.com. The Search.tappytop.com portal is not trusted and is related to the Safe Finder riskware. The icon of the TappyTop Browser is tailored to look like the one of Google Chrome and fool users into thinking that the TappyTop Browser may be an updated version of Google Chrome. Security investigators strongly advise against keeping the TappyTop Browser on your PC. You can eradicate the TappyTop software with the assistance of a trusted anti-malware utility.
