Chrome, Firefox, Opera, Edge; there is no immune program. The adware alters their settings and throws you into a whirlwind of adverts. The adware injects various ads on every website you visit. You will notice that even web pages that used to be ad-free are now heavy on in-text and banner ads. Pop-ups cover your screen every time you as much as touch your browser. Even your videos get paused for commercial breaks. No ad-blocking tool is powerful enough to stop the ad invasion. The adware controls your browser.

They succeed only if you allow them to. The adware needs you (the user) to approve its installation. No permission, no admission. If you, however, don’t pay attention to the fine print, you are very likely to provide the adware with the green light it needs. The parasite lurks in the shadows and waits for you to let your guard down. Do not make its job easier. Do not give into naivety. No anti-virus app can protect you if you act recklessly. Only your caution is powerful enough to keep your device secure and virus-free. Do not visit questionable websites. Download software and updates from reliable sources only. And, of course, pay attention to all installation processes. Most of the apps we download off the Web come bundled with bonus programs. The free extras, as you can imagine, are often potentially dangerous. Make sure you know what you install. When available, use the advanced/custom setup option. Under it, you would be able to deselect all unwanted extras. Do not rush. Take your time to read the terms and conditions before you agree to them.
