About Beansearching.com virus

Beansearching.com virus looks just like most of other search providers. Despite that, if you try using it, you will understand the biggest problems it causes. Beansearching.com virus displays lists of sponsored websites instead of regular search results, that often don’t even correspond to the search query. The program only seeks to promote affiliate websites, as it get paid for that.

Not only you will not be able to get reliable search results, but you will also risk to visit potentially dangerous websites. If you click on an infected link, you can easily get your system infected or download some potentially unwanted program to your system. If you don’t want to have any privacy or security related issues, remove Beansearching.com virus as soon as possible. This is the last search provider you should trust.

Distribution Methods of Beansearching.com virus
