Can’t Remove Multitimer? This page includes detailed Multitimer Removal instructions!
The Multitimer app is not what you think it is. Security researchers have classified this deceptive app as a PUP (Potentially Unwanted Program). Following a successful installation, the PUP modifies your browser settings and takes full control of it. The parasite turns your poor browser into an ad-displaying surveillance tool. The intruder monitors your browsing-related data and uses the collected information for relevant ad targeting. Thus, if you enter “sneakers” into some search engine, the PUP will display adverts for sports shoes. But don’t imagine an ad or two. No! This parasite throws its victims into a whirlwind of advertisements. It injects ads on every web page you open, redirects your traffic to sponsored pages, and even pauses your videos for commercial breaks. It turns your browsing experience into a nightmare. It is not just your comfort that is affected. The lack of security should be in the focus of your attention. The Multitimer PUP has no security mechanism. Anyone can use this parasite and its resources to promote. Various crooks take advantage of the PUP and use it to spread misleading and false ads. Bear this in mind the next time you see an irresistible online offer. If it looks too good to be true, it probably isn’t. With the Multitimer PUP on board, you are more likely to be redirected to a deceptive website than to a legitimate one. Spare yourself many future headaches, remove the PUP now!
How did I get infected with Multitimer?
The Multitimer PUP can be downloaded from multiple online platforms. The parasite is also spread through deception. It lurks behind software bundles, torrents, spam emails, and fake updates. All it needs to enter your OS is one second of carelessness. Do not make its job easier. Be always vigilant and doubting. Especially when you are about to install a new program. Opt for the Advanced/Custom option in the Setup Wizard. Many software developers attach extra apps to the payload files of their software. When you use the standard setup, these extras get installed automatically. Under the Advanced, however, you can deselect them. Do it! If you truly needed such apps, you would have downloaded them by yourself. Don’t let others tell you how you should use your computer. Install only the apps you want and need! Also, do not skip the Terms and Conditions/End User License Agreement (EULA). If you don’t have the time to read it, use an online EULA analyzer to scan the document. If you spot anything out of the ordinary, abort the installation immediately. The Internet is too dangerous. You cannot afford to be careless nor naive. Always take the time to do your due diligence!
