Kong Games is categorized as a potentially unwanted adware program. Make no mistake! This is a malevolent, intrusive, harmful application that causes an entire array of damages once it latches onto your computer. It slithers its way in by means of deception and finesse, and then wreaks all sorts of havoc. The first, and probably most obnoxious, issue you’ll be faced with is the flood of ads you’ll be forced to bear every time you attempt to go online. Shortly after infiltration, the application commences a full-on bombardment of pop-up ads. And, each time you try to browse the web, a pop-up will show up and interrupt you. The only way to put an end to this continuous disturbance is to get rid of the Kong Games tool altogether. Otherwise, you’ll just have to get used to seeing these vexatious ads incessantly. And, also, since they WILL appear incessantly, they lead to further damages. So, you’ll also have to get used to frequent system crashes and a slower computer performance.

How did I get infected with?

Kong Games is bound to ask for your permission before it installs itself on your computer. But don’t think this minor detail will help you in any way because it won’t. You won’t even see the program coming your way. That’s because it’s extremely resourceful and masterful in the arts of deceit. In fact, not only does it get you to approve its install, but also manages to keep you oblivious to the fact that you did. That’s the level of skill the program possesses. It relies on the old but gold methods of invasion in order to sneak in undetected. More often than not, it hides behind spam email attachments, corrupted links or websites, or freeware. However, it can also pose as a bogus system or program update. For example, while you may be sure that you’re updating your Java or Adobe Flash Player, in actuality, you’ll be giving the green light to Kong Games. If you wish to avoid getting stuck with this hazardous adware and having to deal with its ever-growing pile of troubles, don’t rush and try to be more careful! If you allow haste, naivety, and distraction to guide you, don’t be surprised when they lead you to regret. After all, remember that a little extra attention can go a long, long way.

Why are these ads dangerous?

Kong Games throws so many pop-up your way for a reason. It does so because it’s an ad-supported application, whose entire existence relies on its ability to generate web traffic and produce pay-per-click revenue for the third parties behind it. That means that if it is to proceed with its operations, it has to trick you into clicking on its pop-ups. The more you click on, the better. That is why, the application leaves nothing to chance! In order to increase its likelihood of success, the program does its homework on you. It researches you. Kong Games doesn’t just flood you with random ads, and hope for the best. Oh, no. The ads you see are chosen specifically for you, and you alone. Once it invades your PC, it starts observing your browsing habits in an attempt to understand what you like and is like. After it determines what your preferences include, it has a better idea what will appeal to you, spark your interests, and result in a click, i.e. cash. Then follow the never-ending waterfall of “appropriate” ads. But if you’re foolish enough to click on even one, all you’ll have to show for it more unwanted malware getting into your system. So, be more careful and ignore the ads no matter how enticing they seem. Unfortunately, the application doesn’t stop at merely monitoring you. It keeps a thorough record of your every move, and when it feels it has collected enough data from you, proceeds to send it to the third parties that support it. Are you willing to grant access to your personal and financial information to wicked strangers? The choice is yours.
