Specifically, Qihoo Company accused 372 1 of the following aspects:
1. Bundled installation: 372 1 network real-name plug-ins are often bundled with other software. When users install these softwares, they will silently install the 372 1 plug-in, resulting in the software appearing on users' computers for no reason.
2. Difficult to uninstall: Many users report that it is difficult to completely uninstall the 372 1 plug-in, and even according to the official uninstallation method, the residual files of 372 1 cannot be completely removed.
3. Stealing user privacy: 372 1 plug-in collects and uploads personal information such as user browser access history and search keywords, which is suspected of infringing user privacy.
4. Affect the running speed of the computer: 372 1 plug-ins run in the background, occupying system resources, which may slow down the running speed of the computer and affect the user experience.
For the above reasons, Qihoo severely criticized 372 1 when it launched anti-rogue software, and took it as the key cleaning object. At the same time, Qihoo also launched tools such as 360 Security Guard to help users detect and remove 372 1 plug-ins to protect users' computer security.
