How did I get infected with?

MarkingApp is known to have had an official website which is no longer working. You should keep that in mind when deciding whether the application is genuine or not because any legitimate program should be officially represented at its active homepage. Since the case is not the same with MarkingApp, you should not trust it. In addition, if an application cannot be downloaded, it means that it uses unreliable distribution methods to reach users’ computers. Most often adware travels bundled with freeware. So, when users install free software of unspecified origin, they also acquire several unwanted applications. This can also happen when they open spam emails and download the attachments to them, and when they click various pop-up ads they see on the web. Not doing these things means giving the PC a chance to remain clean for longer. Therefore, it is a good idea to memorize them and make them your habits when you browse the web and acquire software.

Why are these ads dangerous?

When it comes to MarkingApp you can be certain in one thing – instead of helping you in any way, the application will turn your time on the Internet into an unpleasant experience. All the ads MarkingApp will display will surely irritate you because they will appear very persistently and will interrupt your activity. To continue you will have to close each ad separately, which will only solve your problem temporarily. MarkingApp ads will re-appear every time you enter a new web page and will keep doing so until you remove the MarkingApp application from your PC. Each ad by MarkingApp contains a link to a third-party website, so when you click it you will be sent to that website.
