Unfortunately, none of this is true so don’t fall into that trap. Most importantly, whatever you do, don’t download anything this pest suggests.

The Unstopweb.net Virus

Yes, they use the pay-per-click mechanism to gain profits at your expense. You are becoming their sponsor no matter is you want it or not.

The malware runs on your CPU and uses a lot of RAM. Your computer`s speed slows down to a crawl. Your system crashes and reboots more often. Your browsers freeze as well due to the never-ending ad bombardment. Your whole online experience turns hellish and you are constantly a single click away from compromising your PC even further. Don’t waste any more time and delete this threat immediately. It causes nothing but problems and the longer it stays the more they become. Use our removal guide at the end of this article and clean your PC of this mess.

But how did you get stuck with Unstopweb.net in the first place? Did you voluntarily install it on your machine? No. It tricked you into giving it green light. Hackers rely on the old but gold means of infiltration to infect victims` machines. For example, with freeware bundles, spam email messages, fake program updates, corrupted links/pages/torrents, malicious third-party ads, etc. Any of these tactics would work if you provide something yourself – your negligence.

You have to be extra vigilant all the time as the web is full of infections praying for your haste and distraction. Don’t grant them. Protect your PC. Don’t open emails from unknown senders. Stay away from shady pages and unverified download sources. Don’t click on every ad that comes your way without thinking. When installing an update/program, always read the Terms and Conditions before you agree to anything. You may think you are updating Java while, in fact, you are downloading an infection. Also, always opt for the Custom settings in the Setup Wizard instead of the Basic ones. This way you will be able to see if there are any additional programs bundled and deselect them. Remember, preventing an infection is much easier that dealing with it later on.
