How did I get infected with?

Chances are, you have absolutely no answer to that question. The most likely scenario (as well the most unpleasant one) is that Kava Puller is currently on your device because you installed it without noticing. Adware-type programs like this one usually apply stealthy techniques so they don’t really need your active cooperation; they only need your negligence. That is why next time you download freeware off of the Internet, it’s highly recommended to opt for the Advanced option instead of the Basic one. If you notice some sneaky and crafty “bonus” program which is trying to get installed along with the other software, it’s your responsibility to deselect it and stop the installation on time. You should also be very careful when it comes to free software packages (so-called “bundles”) as most unverified third-party web pages include at least one unwanted piece of software in their bundles that could cause you immense trouble later on. In addition, make sure you stay away from spam email-attachments/messages of all kinds because they might be some of the oldest tricks in the books but, unfortunately, they’re still super effective.

Why are these ads dangerous?

The Kava Puller parasite is neither the most harmful, not the most difficult one to remove. Having said that, you should be aware that this parasite only becomes more dangerous as time passes. Its developers rely on the fact that most people would underestimate the threat Kava Puller poses and they would not take care of the infection fast enough. The parasite, of course, takes full advantage of such careless behavior. Once it gets installed, Kava Puller adds its malicious browser extension to Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox and Internet Explorer. That is how the virus takes complete control over your entire Internet experience – it generates commercials through the add-on and it practically floods every single web page that you try to visit. The Kava Puller ads include pop-ups, pop-unders, banners, interstitials, in-texts, random hyperlinks, etc. Apart from being very annoying, completely irrelevant to you and quite problematic for your browser, the ads are sponsored which means they all are possibly corrupted. Clicking anything displayed by the parasite is a terrible, terrible idea, regardless of how attractive it may seem to you. The Kava Puller only exists so its developers could generate some profit at your expense through some highly dubious monetizing systems. However, you do NOT need to be a part of any of the hackers’ schemes so our logical advice is to remove this program immediately. Kava Puller can’t be even remotely beneficial, it constantly tries to mislead you and on top of it all, the virus successfully monitors your browser activities and sends this entire information straight into the greedy hands of hackers. From this moment on you could never be sure where and for what purposes exactly your personal data is. To put an end to this trickery for good and eliminate all the dangers Kava Puller puts you in, follow the removal guide down below.
