How did I get infected with?

SlimPrice resorts to the usual antics when it comes to finding a way to your system. More often than not, it hitches a ride with freeware as it provides the easiest entry point. Most users pay little to no attention when going through its installation process and end up paying the price for it. They seem to think that it’s a good idea to not read the terms and conditions, and instead agree to everything in haste. Unless you want to end up with adware like SlimPrice or some other malicious program, it’s not a good idea at all. The program also has an entire array of different methods, which it can use to sneak in. Some of the most common ones include hiding behind spam email attachments, corrupted links, and corrupted websites or posing as a bogus system or program update. SlimPrice relies on your distraction, so maybe if you’re a bit more attentive, you’ll avoid getting stuck with it.

Why are these ads dangerous?

SlimPrice has an active webpage – slimprice.net. If you take a leap of faith and visit this bogus page, you’ll be greeted by the statement that the application “is innovative, simple, and free”. But is it though? It’s certainly free in the sense that it won’t cost you a penny to download it, but that doesn’t mean you won’t end up paying for it. It may seem simple enough, but that’s just on the surface. And there’s nothing innovative about adware as all adware programs act the same way. They trick you into allowing them in, bombard you with pop-ups, and proceed to steal your private information. That’s right. SlimPrice jeopardizes your security, because it’s designed to keep track of every move you make, catalog it, and then send the collected data to the third parties behind it. Are you willing to risk handing your personal and financial information to unknown malicious people? If not, be sure to delete SlimPrice as soon as you realize it has infected your computer.
