Daily Visitor Survey is an adware program. The rogue tool has a defined advertising strategy. It gives people the chance to complete surveys for the chance to win a prize. If you have participated in an online survey, you would know the drill. Different websites hold raffles for various prizes. However, there are websites and programs which deceive people.

Threats lurk around the web, waiting to pounce on a non-suspecting victim. The most common and most successful way to spread malware is via bundles. Since unlicensed programs are not protected from manipulation, it is them that serve for this purpose. You should be careful when selecting tools. Check if they have a good reputation to begin with.

As a rule of thumb, you should not agree to have extra software included in the installation process.

Spam emails can be tricky. The sender can write on behalf of a reputable entity, like the national post, the local police department, the district court, a government branch, an institution, a bank or a courier firm.

Even if this does not happen, you will be asked to fill in some details and answer questions regarding your personal habits and interests. You should not provide information to an unknown entity. Any details you disclose may be misused. Confidentiality and privacy are not to be taken lightly.

The owners of Daily Visitor Survey get paid to link to third party websites. The adware redirects users through the surveys. For their efforts, the renegade developers are awarded commissions. The exact amount depends on the number of clicks registered. This monetizing technique has been appropriately dubbed the pay-per-click system. The details surrounding the surveys are not disclosed. Since you do not pay to receive them, your personal security is not regarded as a priority. Some of the websites the adware links to may be unsafe. We advise you to discard the content brought by Daily Visitor Survey. While some of the surveys may be legitimate, others may be part of a malicious scheme.

It tracks people’s browsing sessions and records all kinds of information it can access from their web browser. This encompasses surfing history, cookies, keystrokes, IP address, email, telephone number, geographic location, zip code, demographic profile, user names, passwords, financial credentials and other input.
