What is web companion? - A potentially unwanted application that provides real-time cloud-based screening of URLs. It often comes in packs of adware and browser hijackers, and it is promoted using deceptive methods such as "bundling." Lavasoft uses suspicious coding to build Web Companion; an independent study found that its security feature is based on Komodia Public SDKs -- the same coding responsible for the Superfish security incident with Lenovo devices.
