Remove QuestScan (Uninstall Guide)

QuestScan is defined as adware by some anti-virus software applications (Avira, AVG, Ikarus). It is bundled with Hotbar and other free software. We were unable to find a traditional setup executable of Quest Scan. Whenever you are searching for any keyword on the address bar of your web browser it is redirected to questscan.com search engine instead of searching for results in the Google or any other default search engine. It displays very limited and commercial results most of the time. Many users will likely find this a confusing experience because QuestScan changes the way you search the web.
