Remove Breaking News Alert

Breaking News Alert is adware that claims to help you stay informed of important news at any time. Its homepage features that you will be always informed, via this utility, for the latest news in the world.

As it’s obvious, you are not informed for its principal function, namely displaying advertising on your browser. Besides, Breaking News Alert does not need its homepage to be installed since this potentially unwanted program is sneakily installed along with free programs downloaded from sites such as softonic or 01net or through fake programs (video readers etc…) or fake plugin or software updates (Java or Flash).

Once installed on your computer, Breaking News Alert is difficult to be uninstalled since it’s developed in a way to stay longer on a computer to display its advertising.

You should know that Ads by Breaking News Alert is considered as a malware by 25 security software.
