How did I get infected with Advanced Identity Protector?
Advanced Identity Protector has an official website and download. It, however, also travels the web hidden in software bundles, fake updates, and spam messages. The parasite usually hides in the fine print and infects your PC when you “forget” to deny it access. That’s the thing about PUPs – these parasites are not viruses. They can’t hack your computer. The PUPs follow standard installation procedures. They need you, the user, to approve their installation. No permission, no admission. They can’t proceed without your “Yes.” There, however, is a catch. Having to ask is not the same as having to do so outright. The PUPs are deceivers. They lurk in the shadows and prey on your naivety. Do not make their job easier. Your actions can keep your PC free of infections. Make the right decision. Choose caution over carelessness! Even a little extra attention can spare you an avalanche of problems. Don’t visit questionable websites. Download software and updates from reputable sources only.

To prevent the unwanted extras from installing, use the advanced/custom setup option. Under it, you will be able to deselect the unwanted extras. Also, before you click on that “Accept” button, go through the terms and conditions. If you can’t read the whole document, scan it with an online EULA analyzer. Don’t hesitate to abort the installation if you notice anything suspicious!
