MapsEasy browser extension grants means of entry to maps and satellite images, text/map driving directions, current reports about traffic situations and relevant weather forecasts.

The tool is owned and controlled by AVSoftware, Ltd. MapsEasy explains that it will make modifications to browsers’ preferences in order to be able to fully function. Reports suggest that this add-on can arrive in devices without permission. This means that users will not consent to receiving Mapseasy.net search engine or the MapsEasy toolbar.

Details about Mapseasy.net virus

Mapseasy.net virus rearranges browsers’ settings for the sake of assigning its search platform as the main preference.

In some cases, the search engine will slip in links to websites that normally would not be featured in honorable facilities for searching.
