Deceiving domain - oberonbooster.com
Oberonbooster.com is a misleading site that claims to distribute the computer assistant and an optimization tool OberonBooster that, unfortunately, is nothing but a potentially unwanted application. This category is confirmed by the detection rate of the associated files.
The page claims that programs distributed on oberonbooster.com can provide speed up, security, and optimization functions when the program itself is only a shady registry cleaner. So developers promise to clean the system from issues, or even malware, indicate infections, risks, and other problems with the device by only cleaning the junk files or outdated registry keys. The interference with such parts of the machine like the registry and other folders can trigger more security or performance issues.
oberonbooster.com is misleading itself, and the program that it delivers is harmful. PUA shows the process window of scanning the machine, but it is not checking your device, in the first place. The results provided also are false and pre-determined, so your device is not having any of those issues that OberonBooster claims to find. Finally, the program cannot restore the problems if you rely on the free trial version. However, the paid versions are not performing any needed functions and only can clean the list of false detections to make you believe it actually worked.
