How did I get infected with?

Torrents, fake updates, corrupted links, malvertising. There are various malware distribution tricks. The adware behind the Markably.info ads, however, tends to use software bundles. This parasite travels the Web as an extra to third-party software. It gets installed when you “forget” to deny it access. That’s the trick! The adware is not a virus. It can’t “hack” your computer. This menace needs you, the user, to approve its installation. It is bound to seek your approval. Having to ask, however, is not the same as having to do so outright. So, pay attention to the fine print. You can never know where a parasite might strike from. The key to a secure and infection-free computer is vigilance. Even a little extra attention goes a long way. So, choose caution over carelessness! Don’t visit questionable websites. Download software and updates from reliable sources only. And forget about the “Next-Next-Finish” setup strategy. When available, use the advanced/custom option. Go through the terms and conditions before you agree to them. You can, of course, speed up this step by using an online EULA analyzer. Don’t hesitate to opt out of the installation if you notice anything suspicious!
