How did I get infected with?

Krab Web resorts to the usual antics so as to gain access to your system. More often than not, it uses freeware as a means of invasion as it provides possibly the easiest way in. That’s because, for some reason, users have convinced themselves that it will be okay if they skip reading the terms and conditions, and instead agree to everything in haste. That’s a horrible idea, especially when it comes to freeware as it’s often bundled with all kinds of malware. Due to rushing the process and not paying enough attention, these users end up stuck with Krab Web. If that’s something you wish to avoid, just try to be a bit more careful. Keep your eyes open and remember that a little extra attention can go a long way. Other preferred methods of infiltration include hiding behind corrupted links and websites, as well as behind spam email attachments. The program can also pose as a bogus system or program update.

Why are these ads dangerous?

Krab Web does not flood you with a never-ending waterfall of pop-ups for no reason. The application does so in order to continue its existence. Since it’s ad-supported, its primary objective is to generate web traffic for specific websites and produce pay-per-click revenue for the third parties who support it. Each ad, you are fooled into clicking on, is profit for these people. However, it is strongly recommended you ignore the pop-ups and avoid clicking on them. They are highly unreliable, and even a single click on a single ad may have catastrophic repercussions. For example, you might end up agreeing to install more malware on your computer without even realizing it. But the infuriating pop-ups and even the threat of more malware won’t be your biggest concerns. What you should worry about, above all else, is the fact that Krab Web places your privacy in grave jeopardy. The application is designed to keep track of every move you make and catalog it until it feels it has enough. Once it decides that it has collected enough data from you, it proceeds to send it to the unknown individuals behind it. As soon as they have it, they can use it as they see fit, and you can’t stop them. Do you believe this malevolent, unsafe and damaging tool is worth such a tremendous risk? Do what’s best for you and your system, and delete Krab Web the first chance you get.
