High Unite (developed by the infamous SuperWeb LLC.) gives you one more reason to be cautious when browsing the Web. This thing is a virus. Even though it’s supposed to be a harmless application, hackers don’t often tend to tell the truth about their malicious creations, do they? The High Unite parasite will NOT enhance your browsing experience, it will NOT save you time, it will NOT save you money and it truly doesn’t belong on your machine. Parasites only become more troublesome as time passes so don’t make the rookie mistake to keep High Unite on board. Otherwise, you will soon regret this poor decision. The virus has been classified as an adware and a potentially unwanted program (PUP) and has nothing but issues to offer. You should know that the longer you leave it unattended on your computer, the more problematic it becomes. After successful infiltration, which usually happens behind your back, High Unite immediately begins to modify your browser settings (again, behind your back). Your preferences no longer matter. Adware is very efficient when it comes to generating web traffic so that’s exactly what this program does. However, the problem with sponsored web links is that they are extremely unreliable. For example, High Unite injects your browsers with all kinds of pop-ups including fake and corrupted ones. Therefore, you might accidentally click something very dangerous disguised as an attractive product offer. Make sure you avoid all discounts, coupons, deals and other equally questionable pop-ups. As we mentioned, High Unite was never really meant to improve your browsing experience; it was meant to help its greedy developers gain revenue online. The virus might also try to force various program updates on you or even install additional toolbars without your consent. In addition, the parasite monitors your browsing-related activities thus jeopardizing your privacy. It also slows down the overall PC speed and causes your browsers to frequently crash/freeze. Long story short, High Unite has to be uninstalled quickly if you want to regain control over your online experience. Don’t take unnecessary risks by ignoring the problem; this virus will not delete itself.

How did I get infected with?

One of the most commonly used infiltration methods at the moment is freeware bundling. It’s very likely that this is how High Unite invaded your PC as well. To prevent such stealthy virus techniques in the future, always keep an eye out for parasites. Take your time when installing programs, especially if they come bundled. Even though most people skip installation steps and rush the process, this is a very careless behavior which exposes them to numerous threats. Never risk your safety. Instead, opt for the Advanced or Custom option in the Setup Wizard. This way you will remain in control of the installation and no bonus parasite will be able to sneak in. Also, reading the Terms and Conditions may not be a particularly fun thing to do but it will protect your device from malware. Being attentive allows you to react on time and rushing the process may result in accepting some nasty term/condition you strongly disagree with. It goes without saying that removing a parasite is much more problematic than protecting your computer. Don’t be gullible to think your machine cannot get infected; it can. The Web is infested with malware and it should be your number one priority to prevent virus infiltration.

Why are these ads dangerous?

The High Unite ads are displayed on every single website you visit for one very simple reason. Have we mentioned that this program is compatible with Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox and Internet Explorer? It is. That means the parasite effectively injects all three browsers with commercials by adding its malicious extension. Then it continues to modify your browser settings even further. You’re no longer in control of your Internet experience because what hackers aim for is to redirect you. Your opinions don’t matter. Thanks to the add-on, High Unite starts generating its never-ending parade of pop-ups ads, pop-under ads, banner ads, interstitial ads, video ads, etc. and you should always keep in mind how dangerous those could be. The virus doesn’t discriminate between safe and harmful commercials so it displays both kinds. In this mess of web links, software updates, third-party advertisements and other questionable ads you simply cannot feel safe. Do you want to make your browsers trustworthy again? Uninstall the parasite. To top it all, High Unite also exposes your privacy to danger because it constantly monitors your browsing-related activities. However, the virus might even attempt to steal some personally identifiable data and there is no parallel universe in which this could end well for you. Don’t gamble with your safety.
