	Seekmo Search Assistant

Details of the Seekmo Search Assistant are shown below. This threat can be detected and cleaned using PestBlock Anti-Spyware.


Name:	Seekmo Search Assistant
Type:	Spyware
Risk:
Description:	Seekmo Search Assistant produces targeted pop-up advertisements based on what users browse. To produce these targeted advertisements, Seekmo Search Assistant collects keywords from websites you visit including portions of website addresses or URLs, which can include users search terms. The current version appears to conform to AntiSpyware Coalition Best Practices, however a full screen served by Seekmo may replace a screen from which the user intends to purchase a product, also some registry keys remain if you uninstall the product.

Removal
We do not publish here the MD5 checksums for files. PestBlock Anti Spyware can identify good file from bad more accurately.
