KuaiZip is supposed to be a perfectly safe file compression program. On practice, though, it’s a dangerous PC infection. Classified as a PUP, KuaiZip is more than capable of turning your online experience into a nightmare. The abbreviation PUP stands for a “potentially unwanted program”. Well, there is no such thing as a desirable cyber parasite. PUPs are actually among the least destructive types of viruses you could stumble across. That doesn’t mean they are harmless, though. KuaiZip will unleash its entire malicious potential unless you take measures. Do not overlook this threat and don’t tolerate its shenanigans.

PUPs never really aim at improving your browsing experience. This particular virus is no exception. Once your browsers get modified, they start generating pop-ups. Keep in mind that these ads are not only irritating, stubborn and obnoxious. They are also immensely unreliable. Anything brought to you by the virus is sponsored. Yes, that means the pop-ups you now see are potentially fake. They don’t appear to be fake, of course. Hackers need to trick you into clicking in order to gain profit. That is why the KuaiZip ads appear to be attractive. You have to restrain yourself from clicking them, though. Such a careless move could easily compromise your machine further. You already have a PC virus on board. Do you want to install more infections? No? Then stay away from the never-ending ads displayed by this nuisance. Your browsers also redirect you to bizarre pages as well. That means you’re constantly one click away from parasites. If you land on a harmful website, you will automatically download infections. The KuaiZip parasite causes your browsers to crash and/or freeze. It could result in an unstable Internet connection as well. Does it seem like a good idea to keep such a pest on your computer system? Since the moment it gets installed till the moment you delete it, KuaiZip is troublesome. Did you know that this program even jeopardizes your privacy? It collects all your browsing-related information so hackers could use it. As you could imagine, crooks don’t think twice before they sell your details for marketing purposes. Don’t let cyber criminals harass you. Get rid of their infection instead.
