How to remove Adamant Newsfeed (Removal Guide)
Adamant Newsfeed is a browser extension that modifies your internet browser settings in order to make your browser redirect to its own website when you open a new browser tab. The Adamant Newsfeed extension will replace your new tab settings with another website and this will cause your browser to redirect to search.pristineapp.com when you open a new tab.
The Adamant Newsfeed extension will also show an icon in the top right corner of your browser window. If you click the icon a search field that says “Find News” will appear. If you use the pop-up to search the web you will redirect to Google.com and then to a webpage on search.pristineapp.com.
The Adamant Newsfeed extension for Google Chrome has permission to read and change your data on all the websites you visit, replace the page you see when opening a new tab, and communicate with cooperating websites.
