This adware makes a complete mess of your browsing experience. From the moment it settles in, everything changes. Every time you so much as touch one of your previously reliable browsers, you get interrupted. Your entire screen is completely covered with all kinds of pop-ups and adverts. They are everywhere and they become more and more with each passing day. Do you know why? Because these commercials serve a purpose. They promote the installation of additional malicious content such as optimization apps, web browsers toolbars, etc., all so the adware`s creators can gain pay-per-click revenue.

Every page that you visit is covered with adverts. Also, random web page texts get turned into hyperlinks. You are shown many ads that recommend fake updates and other questionable software. You are forced to visit tons of shady-looking pages as well. Imagine what all of this does to your online activities. It ruins them. But what is worse, you risk downloading more malicious programs on your machine. If you happen to click on the wrong link or ad, you may automatically install other threats. Then, your situation will get from bad to worse.

Your computer is already suffering due to this single adware. It is sluggish and it crashes. Its speed slows down to a crawl. Surfing the web is neither safe nor fun anymore. So, do yourself a favor and remove the adware from your PC the first chance you get. Follow our removal guide at the end of this article and get rid of the intruder. Once you do, everything will get back to normal and you will be able to surf the web normally like you used to before the infection. Don’t waste any time. The adware has no place in your system.

How did the adware enter? Usually, these pests travel bundled to other programs. However, some of these programs do not disclose the facts that you are about to install some malicious app alongside with them and you end up infecting your own PC without realizing it. That’s why we recommend that you opt for the Advanced settings when installing a program. This way you will be able to see if there are any additional attached apps which are about to enter your system. You are also able to deselect them. Under the standard settings, these extras enter automatically. This is how a little extra time and attention from you save you many future issues.
