How did I get infected with?

It is true that although adware applications are considered to be unreliable and are best to be avoided, some of them have official representative websites and are available for download. Unfortunately, this is not the case with NavRight. We say ‘unfortunately’ because if it had a homepage, it would have been possible for you to find out more about what the application does and choose not to install it. NavRight does not give you that chance and gets installed on your computer without your permission. This is possible because the program uses dubious distribution methods like software bundling, which involve installing additional software silently. Software bundling is commonly used by adware developers because it allows them to spread their malicious software unnoticed. You could prevent infecting your system this way by only downloading software from official sources and completing carefully every setup step so that you can decline the installation of additional software.

Why are these ads dangerous?

It is important to remember that whatever content NavRight ads present you with, you should not trust them because they are misleading. The main goal of the ads is to get you to click as many as possible because this means more money for the developers of NavRight. They get paid using the pay-per-click method, so the more ads you click the better. This is the reason why the ads are designed to be relevant to your interest as this consequently makes them more appealing. Still, you should refrain from clicking them because they will redirect you to possibly malicious websites. Every ad displayed by NavRight contains a link to a third-party website, so when you click it you are sent to that website. You can never tell by the way the ad looks what web page it will lead you to, so it is better not to find that out yourself. If you land on a corrupted website, you are likely to enable the setup of severe viruses that will cause great damage to your virtual security. It is really easy to avoid that simply by not clicking NavRight ads. It would be best, though, if you delete the adware program immediately and thus cease the display of potentially dangerous ads.
