What is Adware

Adware is a type of Malware that delivers advertising content potentially. It has been criticized because it usually includes code that traces the user's personal information and passes it on to third parties without the user's authorization or consciousness. It manifests itself in many ways and, although it isn't considered a very dangerous infection, it is advisable to remove Adware from your computer as soon as possible. Free scan your PC now.

Symptoms of Adware

• Pop-up ads are being shown on your screen.
• You are redirected to another website instead of the one you wanna browse.
• Your home page changed although you did not change it.
• Your system becomes very sluggish and slows down

Remove and prevent Adware

Step 1. If you keep getting redirected to an unfamiliar website, please do a search for the name of the website in your registry. If you find this adware, detete it!

Step 2. Press Ctrl+Alt+Del to get your task manager and look through the list of processes for the name of this adware or anything abnormal that you do not recognise. You can right click the process and "End Process" to kill the task.
