How did I get infected with?

Unfortunately, you’re the reason behind the malware’s installation. Oh, yes. You better believe it. A malevolent tool like the one behind coolersearch.com cannot enter your system without first receiving your explicit permission. At one point it asked, and you agreed to let it in. But don’t be too hard on yourself. These types of infection are sneaky. They don’t just openly ask for your approval. They do so covertly, by resorting to trickery and slyness. For example, one of the most commonly used methods of invasion is through freeware. Freeware is often bundled with all kinds of malicious tools, and if you’re not careful enough, they end up on your PC. For some reason, most users have decided that not bothering to read the terms and conditions is acceptable. They just agree to all of them in haste and hope for the best. Needless to say, that’s a poor strategy. Always be cautious! A little extra attention today can save you a lot of issues and headaches tomorrow. Remember that.

Why are these ads dangerous?

coolersearch.com will pop up every single time you try to go online, without fail. But apart from seeing the page incessantly, you’ll also have to endure the ever-present pop-up ads, the malware will throw your way. You’ll be subjected to seeing a never-ending myriad of pop-up advertisements, but don’t think it will be for not. The malicious tool will bombard you with them for a reason. Its existence rests on them, and the pay-per-click revenue they help generate. Each ad you click on produces profit for the third parties behind the tool and help it live to see another day. However, if you press even one pop-up, you’ll dearly regret it. Why? Well, the ads are immensely unreliable. They’re bundled with all kinds of hazardous infections, which are just waiting to be released and invade your system. You ‘unlock’ the malware lurking behind the advertisements with a click. By clicking on an ad you unknowingly agree to the installation of the tool using it as a shield to hide behind. So, unless you wish to get your system overrun with malware, don’t press any of the ads you see! It’s for the best. But the issues don’t stop there. There’s an even greater problem, which makes the malware threat seem like a walk in the park. The tool forcing coolersearch.com upon you jeopardizes your personal and financial information by spying on you. It keeps a thorough record of every move you make, and when it decides it has collected a sufficient amount of data from you, hands it to the individuals that published it. That means strangers will have free rein with your private details. Do you think that will end well? Don’t leave your and your system’s fate to chance! Protect yourself and your PC, and delete the tool behind coolersearch.com.
