Remove RapidyWeb Ads (Permanent Removal)

 

Can’t Remove RapidyWeb ads? This page includes the ads by RapidyWeb Removal instructions!

RapidyWeb is a browser extension that aims to improve your browsing speed without changing the design of the visited websites or your browser settings. We cannot say for certain whether it will do as it promises, but we can assure you that with the add-on on your system you will see tons of third-party ads while you browse the web because RapidyWeb is ad-supported. We strongly recommend that you erase the add-on from your PC because there is nothing beneficial it will do for you.

How did I get infected with?

The first sign that RapidyWeb is unreliable is the fact that it cannot be downloaded from its homepage at rapidyweb.com. The download button you will find there is broken, so it is obvious that the extension uses other distribution methods. It is possible that it has entered your system after clicking an ad you saw on an unknown web page. Such random ads usually promote some supposedly useful software. If you decide to acquire it and click the ad, you are taken to a website where to download this software and actually end up installing adware. You may also have received RapidyWeb together with freeware you have downloaded from an unauthorized source.

Why are these ads dangerous?

The reason why adware is considered to be unreliable is the content it promotes. This content belongs to anonymous third parties and is not supervised by the particular application or add-on. RapidyWeb makes no exception. The developers of the extension are not interested in what is presented to users as long as they get paid. This allows cyber criminals to take advantage of the services of RapidyWeb, so users are exposed to a variety of infections. Sometimes, clicking an ad is more than enough to initiate the setup of unwanted software. For this reason, you should get rid of RapidyWeb to make sure your system does not get attacked by dubious third parties.
