The name ‘Kaboom Travel’ really grasps your attention, doesn’t it? It gets your interest right from the get-go. But before you place your trust in the program and deem it awesome, do some research. You’ll find that it’s not all it appears. Yes, it may have a fantastic-sounding name, and present itself as useful and reliable, but beneath that seeming awesomeness, lies an abyss of awfulness. There’s more to Kaboom Travel than meets the eye. Underneath the layer of marketing, you find a whole universe of issues. The sugary surface layer of marketing hides a myriad of grievances. Make no mistake! The application will bury you in problems. It will consume your time and energy and cause you headaches, as it will force you to deal with a never-ending pile of unpleasantness on a daily basis. But how does something that seems to be useful and has an awesome name be as harmful as we’re painting it to be? Well, unfortunately, that’s the common M.O. of such potentially unwanted adware programs. They depict themselves as trustworthy and reliable but are, in reality, hazardous, invasive and, above all, harmful. In its essence, Kaboom Travel is nothing more PUP adware. It aims to reel you in with false promises and then falls short when it comes to keeping them. Do NOT fall prey to the tool’s deception! See it for what it is: a nasty PUP, which you should remove from your PC as soon as possible.

How did I get infected with?

How does one get stuck with Kaboom Travel? Well, it’s quite straightforward. You allow the application to enter your system. You permit its install, and hold the door open for it as it parades right through, and we’re willing to bet you have no memory of doing so. Why? Well, applications like Kaboom Travel tend to slither into your system via means of slyness and finesse. They manage to fool you into approving them in while keeping you oblivious to it. That’s why, even though you permit the installment of the tool, you don’t remember it. But how can you consent to install a program and don’t realize it? Simple. Kaboom Travel doesn’t openly ask for it. It does it sneakily. More often than not, it hides behind corrupted sites and links, freeware or spam email attachment. It can also pretend to be a fake update, like Java or Adobe Flash Player. It’s exactly because the application is so sly in its methods of invasion that you need to be extra cautious and vigilant when installing a tool of an update. Read the terms and conditions carefully, and never click ‘Yes’ without knowing what it is that you agree to. It may seem simple enough, but you’d be surprised how many users skip through that, agree to everything in haste, and then pay the price when they get stuck with an infection, like Kaboom Travel. Don’t rush, don’t be naive, and don’t rely on luck or chance. Do your due diligence! Even a little extra attention can save you a ton of troubles. Of course, there’s also the scenario where you go to the Kaboomtravel.com website and download it consciously, but it’s needless to say how ill-advised that is. Don’t do it.

Why are these ads dangerous?

Kaboom Travel’s selling point is that it assists users with helping them plan out their vacations to exotic tourist resorts. The application offers information on various topics, which a tourist will find quite useful. For example, the program provides news on the local climate, currency issues, cultural differences, and so on and so on. We’d all agree that all of this seems quite useful. However, despite making these grand promises of helping users, the application, in actuality, harms them. How come? Well, the tool’s developers, Informer Technologies, Inc., have designed it to take advantage of you should you fall into its trap and use it. They’ve programmed it to flood you with pop-up advertisements incessantly and, therefore, generate web traffic and pay-per-click revenue. Every time you try to browse the web, an entire waterfall of pop-ups will come at you, hoping you’ll press at least some of the pop-ups and produce profits. Do NOT click on even a single ad, be it by choice or accident! A click may lead to positives for the people behind the tool, but for you, it’s all negatives. The advertisements are immensely unreliable and bundled with malicious applications. So, each time you press one, you unknowingly agree to install the malware, it’s hiding. Unless you wish to flood your PC with who knows how many more unwanted malicious program, stay away from the pop-ups! Ignore them, and don’t click on even one! Or, better yet, do yourself a favor and delete the Kaboom Travel application from your system altogether. That way, you’ll also protect your personal and financial information from falling into the hands of the wicked unknown individuals, who published the PUP. Oh, yes. That’s one of the ‘joys’ of having the tool on your computer. It spies on you and collects data from you, which it then sends to those people. And, once they have it, they can use it as they wish, and you can’t stop them. Are you prepared to hand over your private life to strangers with agendas? Are you ready for the risks, which will follow? Think about that. Choose your answers carefully as both your and your system’s future rely on them.
