KingTranslate

What is KingTranslate?

The software can be installed directly from the kingtranslate.com or from third party advertisements (which typically are compensated anywhere between $.10 and $1.00 USD per isntallation for any publisher web site that promotes the app). The software however bundles various other 3rd party adware type programs as well as display advertisements itself within the app. During installation, the co-bundle will prompt the user to install various toolbar programs such as the Search-Results Toolbar which will change the user's web browse settings to searchnu.com as the homepage and Search Results (www1.search-results.com) as default search engine whatever if the user accepts the typical or custom installation routines.
