SwizzleBiz (by SuperWeb LLC.) is supposed to “boost your browsing”. Needless to say it does the exact opposite. Despite being promoted as a helpful application, SwizzleBiz is actually an adware-type virus. Long story short, this thing is malicious. There’s no logical reason to keep it on your computer so don’t be neglectful. The sooner you regain control over your PC, the better. You should know that adware is immensely deceptive. SwizzleBiz doesn’t appear to be harmful at first sight. It appears to be practical, fun and utterly safe. Obviously, it’s none of that. SwizzleBiz is a classic member of the irritating adware family. Basically, if you’ve seen one adware pest, you’ve seen them all. The SwizzleBiz virus stars its shenanigans the minute your machine gets infected. By adding a browser extension, this virus takes control over your online experience. Thanks to its browser plugin, SwizzleBiz floods your PC screen with ads. Ah, the ads. Those were probably the first thing that drew your attention. Various commercials, product deals and offers, best prices, price comparisons, coupons and discounts. This entire mess of web links now covers all websites you visit on a daily basis. It goes without saying how annoying that is. You can no longer surf the Web properly but that’s not even the worst part. The worst part is that all these commercials are sponsored. SwizzleBiz is an ad-supported program which only generates specific pop-ups.  However, a sponsored commercials is never safe. Some of SwizzleBiz’s pop-ups are corrupted and lead you directly to malware. Thus, one careless click on a seemingly harmless ad might cause you serious harm. Even if you don’t automatically install more infections, you’re still in danger. You may get involved in a cyber scam and lose money trying to purchase non-existent products. To prevent further damage, stay away from all commercials displayed by SwizzleBiz. Same piece of advice goes for the software updates or other third-party pop-ups. Don’t be gullible to trust the parasite. Its one goal is to help hackers gain profit online. Saving you time and/or money while shopping was never really part of the picture. As if that wasn’t enough, SwizzleBiz also spies on your personal data. Yes, this pest collects passwords, usernames, browsing history, etc. Nobody should have their sensitive information monitored by crooks. You see, cyber criminals could easily sell your data to questionable third parties. Your privacy ends up being jeopardized which may even result in identity theft. To put an end to all these shenanigans, uninstall the virus.

How did I get infected with?

Did you install SwizzleBiz voluntarily? No? This comes as shocking news to nobody because adware is sneaky. More often than not, it applies secretive techniques in order to get spread online. One of the most popular methods is called freeware/shareware bundling. It’s both stealthy and effective so that explains why hackers seem to be loving it. Next time you download such program packages, watch out for malware. Unless you opt for the Custom option in the Setup Wizard, you never know what exactly you install. Take your time in the installation process. Otherwise, you may accidentally give green light to a whole bunch of viruses. Don’t hesitate to deselect any malicious program you may come across in the bundle. Also, check out the EULA (End User License Agreement) or Terms and Conditions. You must be aware what terms/conditions you accept, don’t you think? Skipping installation steps is a very ill-advised thing to do so make no mistake. Be cautious on the Web and take care of your PC in time.
