That includes pretending to be a bogus update, like Java or Adobe Flash Player, or hiding behind freeware, spam email attachments, corrupted links, or sites. As all of these means rely on your gullibility, haste, and lack of attention, perhaps if you fail to provide them, you’ll manage to keep your PC adware-free.
