KeepersExt is a potentially unwanted adware program. This is an incredibly intrusive and malicious tool, not to mention, harmful. After it slithers its way in and latches onto your computer, it starts wreaking havoc and causes all sorts of troubles. The first and probably most obnoxious issue you’ll be forced to deal with will start plaguing you soon after the application sneaks into your system. Shortly after infiltration, KeepersExt commences a full-on bombardment of pop-up ads, which will mess up your online experience until you decide to get rid of the program. Until you delete KeepersExt from your PC, each and every time you try to go online, you’ll be interrupted by an entire array of pop-ups. They will not stop bothering you and, what’s worse, their incessant appearance will lead to further damages. Since they’ll show up so continuously, you’ll start to experience frequent system crashes, and your computer’s performance will slow down to a crawl. Furthermore, as the ads are immensely unreliable, even a single click on a single ad, will inevitably lead to more unwanted malware installations. But even that won’t be your biggest issue, courtesy of the application. The worst part of having adware on your computer is the fact that your personal and financial information is placed at severe risk. KeepersExt starts spying on you immediately after infection. When it deems it has gathered enough data from you, it sends it to unknown individuals with malicious intentions, who can then use it as they see fit. Are you going to allow that? Are you going to grant access to your private life to strangers with agendas? The choice it yours.

How did I get infected with?

KeepersExt resorts to the usual antics in order to gain access to your system. The tool turns to the old but gold methods of invasion and prays on your naivety, haste, and distraction. It usually sneaks in undetected by hitching a ride with freeware as it provides possibly the easiest way in. That’s because most users don’t pay nearly as enough attention as they should during its install process. They rush and don’t even bother to read the terms and conditions. Instead, they just agree to everything and hope for the best. Well, that’s a horrible idea that leads to horrendous repercussions. Unless you WISH to end up with adware like KeepersExt, be more careful and don’t rush! Remember that haste, naivety, and distraction are not your friends, so do your best to avoid them. Other preferred ways of infiltration, the program often turns to include hiding behind spam email attachments, corrupted links, or websites or posing as a false system or program update. Don’t forget that a little extra attention can go a long way!

Why are these ads dangerous?

KeepersExt bombards you with so many pop-ups for a reason. It does so because it is an ad-supported application. That means that if the tool wishes to proceed with its operations, it’s required to generate web traffic and pay-per-click revenue for the third parties that support it. If it fails to do so, it ceases to exist. And, since it’s crucial for the tool to deceive you into clicking on its unreliable pop-ups, it leaves nothing to chance! In order to increase its likelihood of success, the application spends some time getting to know you before it starts the flood. Instead of throw random ads your way and hope for the best, the tool observes your browsing habits so as to learn what you like and dislike. Once it determines what appeals to you, what your preferences include, it picks the “appropriate” ads, and the waterfall commences. The program bombards you with ads, which it feels will best spark your interest and result in a click, i.e. cash. Unfortunately, KeepersExt doesn’t merely monitor you. The tool keeps a thorough record of your every move. When it decides it has collected enough data from you, it sends it to the people behind it. Are you willing to hand your personal and financial information to strangers? Don’t take such a colossal, unnecessary risk! Delete KeepersExt as soon as you possibly can! It’s for the best.
